o o o 


When  I inherited  the  position  of  Editor-in-Chief,  I knew  I was  in  for  a tough  year. 
The  staff  of  the  Merrimackan  had  lost  an  incredible  group  of  seniors,  and  would 
need  to  begin  the  "rebuilding  process."  Faced  with  the  challenges  of  creating  a new, 
dedicated  core  of  staff  members,  meeting  deadlines,  and  eventually  producing  a 
quality  product,  I began  to  have  doubts,  but  quickly  learned  that  in  leadership 
doubts  cause  hesitancy,  which  can  threaten  success.  It  was  simply  time  to  "make 
the  best  of  what  we  had." 

Despite  the  fears  and  frustration,  we,  the  small  group  of  the  Merrimackan  staff 
have  pooled  our  efforts,  sacrificed  a great  deal  of  time  and  energy,  and  have 
hopefully  captured  some  of  the  highlights  of  the  1991-1992  academic  year  at 
Merrimack  College.  It  is  our  sincere  hope  that  the  members  of  the  Merrimack 
College  family  will  enjoy  our  attempt  at  creating  a pleasant  memory  of  this 
particular  stop,  "on  the  road  to  success."

On  The  Road  To  Success 


The  road  to  success  is 
long,  difficult,  and  often 
lonely.  Although 
measurement  of  success 
depends  largely  upon  the 
individual,  it  is  considered  a 
miracle  if  one  can  earn  an 
adequate  living  without 
some  form  of  formal 
education.  Being  in  a 
position  to  obtain  this 
education  is  an  obstacle  in 
itself.  Everything  costs  much 
more  money  than  is  readily 
available-  books,  tuition, 
food,  and  gas.  Although 
many  of  us  are  truly  blessed 
by  parents  who  can  provide 
the  financial  assistance 
necessary  to  make  things 
happen,  others  are  not. 

Instead  they  must  decide 
aetween  the  lesser  of  two 
jvils:  excessive  hours  of 
employment,  or  the 
undesirable,  interest  accruing 
oans.  In  the  end,  when  a 
graduate  firmly  grasps  the  all 
powerful  diploma  in  his  or 


change.  Commuters  will 
forever  ponder,  "What  would 
it  have  been  like  to  live  on 
campus?"  Residents  will 
forever  question,  "Would  my 
grades  have  been  better  if  I 
could  have  gone  home  to 
sleep  in  a nice,  quiet  room?" 
And,  of  course.  Division  of 
Continuing  Education 
students  will  look  back  in 


The  1992 

Merrimackan  will  become  a 
historical  representation  of 
the  past  academic  year  that 
captures  the  true  essence  of 
the  collegiate  experience.  It 
provides  a complete  picture 
of  Merrimack  - Clubs, 
Organizations,  Athletic 
Teams,  Faculty, 
Administration  and  various 


degree,  but'we  maintained 
our  sanity  and  reached  our 
goal.  There  will, 
undoubtedly,  be  many 
unexpected  obstacles  in  our 
future.  Of  course,  no  matter 
how  rocky  or  curvy  the  road 
may  grow,  we  will  continue 
to  move  forward,  down  the 
"road  to  success." 


ler  hand,  it  is  done  with 
elief,  as  well  as  memories  of 
he  various  sacrifices. 

Certain  elements  of 
:ollege  life  will  never 


social  events.  Hopefully,  in 
years  from  now,  students  will 
look  at  it  and  reminisce.  We 
have  faced  countless 
obstacles  in  our  quest  for  a 


disbelief,  "How  did  I ever 
work  full  time,  raise  my 
children,  maintain  my 
marriage  and  earn  a college 
degree?" 


u ndoubtedly,  there  are 

countless  individuals  at 
Merrimack  who  have,  in  their 
own  way,  worked  to  make 
Merrimack  a pleasant  place. 
These  individuals,  both 
within  the  faculty,  the  staff, 
and  the  administration,  have 
continuously  reached  out  and 
made  an  everlasting 
impression  in  all  of  our  lives. 
The  staff  of  the  1992 
Merrimackan  would  like  to 
direct  your  attention  towards 
three  particular  individuals: 
Marv  Hamel,  Betty  Kelleher 
and  Patricia  Long. 

Mary,  Betty  and  Pat, 
we  proudly  dedicate  Volume 
42  of  the  Merrimackan  to  all 
of  you.  Your  respective 
contributions  to  Merrimack 
have  not  gone  unnoticed. 

You  have  managed  to  make 
the  pathway  a little  bit 
smoother  as  we  the  students 
moved  through  Merrimack, 
"On  The  Road  To  Success." 


No  matter  what  the  question  Mrs.  Hamel  maintains  her  composure  and 
flashes  a warm  smile. 


M ary  Hamel  joined  the  staff  of  the  Office  of  Financial  Aid 
in  September  of  1979.  Since  then,  when  confused  and  frustrated 
students  or  parents  have  walked  into  the  office,  they  have  been 
greeted  by  her  friendly  smile.  Frequently  referred  to  as  the 
"sweet  lady  in  front  of  the  door  with  the  white  hair,"  she  seems 
blessed  by  an  endless  supply  of  patience  and  understanding  as 
she  answers  endless  questions  regarding  scholarships  and  loans. 
She  is  loved  and  respected  by  the  Director,  Assistant-  Director, 
Loan  Coordinator  and  all  of  the  office's  work-study  staff.  Her 
pleasant  nature  will  definitely  be  missed  when  she  leaves 
Merrimack  in  July  of  1992.

B etty  Kelleher  has  dedicated  the  past  22  years  of 
her  life  to  the  Merrimack  College  family.  She  has 
worked  in  various  offices  around  campus,  including  the 
Office  of  Fiscal  Affairs,  as  well  as  for  different  members 
of  the  Administration.  Now,  she  is  the  first  person  that  a 
visitor  at  Merrimack  College  sees  upon  entering  Austin 
Hall,  and  there  is  no  one  better  qualified  for  the  position. 
In  a sense,  she  is  a perfect  example  of  one  of  the  charms 
that  attracts  so  many  to  Merrimack.  When  a potential 
student  walks  through  the  door  of  Austin,  she 
immediately  works  to  make  him  or  her  feel  comfortable. 
She  has  a big  heart  and  is  definitely  one  of  Merrimack's 
finest. 


Pat  Long  definitely  adds  a special  spark  to  the  Resident  Life  Office,  and  often 
brings  a much  needed  chuckle  to  the  yearbook  staff. 


I^t  Long  has  been  a memberoof  the  Resident  Life 
Staff  for  the  past  5 years,  and  was,  for  12  years  prior,  a 
member  of  the  Office  of  Financial  Aid  Team.  Like  Mary 
and  Betty,  she  too  succeeds  in  eliminating  some  of  our 
confusion,  while  maintaining  more  than  just  a pleasant 
profile.  When  incoming  students  have  questions 
regarding  the  rooms  or  their  roommates,  or  present 
students  look  to  inquire  about  room  changes,  she  finds 
the  answers.  To  the  members  of  the  yearbook  staff,  she 
has  been  like  one  of  the  family.  Ample  words  cannot  be 
written  to  show  our  gratitude  for  her  frequent  words  of 
encouragement  and  timely  expressions  of  concern. 

- Heather  Fleming 


Any  student  or  faculty  member  who  has  had  occasion  to  deal  with  Betty 
Kelleher  knows  that  her  gift  to  initiate  a friendly  conversation  is  one  of 
Merrimack's  greatest  charms.

Assistants 


Resident  Assistants  do  their  best  to  make  new  students  comfort- 
able. Before  students  move  in,  the  Resident  Assistants  must 
complete  a comprehensive  training  program  that  is  constructed 
to  prepare  them  for  the  trials  and  tribulations  of  the  coming  year. 
Throughout  the  year  they  are  faced  with  various  challenges  that 
fellow  students  may  find  undesirable.  Despite  the  occasional 
friction,  most  of  the  staff  look  back  at  the  learning  experience  as 
quite  rewarding.

Members  of  the  Orientation  Committee  have 
a tough  job.  In  addition  to  creating  the  first 
impression  of  Merrimack  College  for  many 
incoming  students,  they  are  also  frequently 
called  upon  to  respond  to  endless  questions  of 
the  incoming  students...  W/ty  atn  1 here?  Do  1 
really  want  to  live  on  campus?  What  is  this  place 
going  to  be  like?  Is  there  anything  to  do  here?  Wiat 
if  1 don't  get  along  with  my  roommate?  The 
Orientation  Committee  is  a dedicated  group  of 
individuals  that  donate  a great  deal  of  time  to 
get  students  started  off  on  the  right  foot. 

Both  residents  and  commuters  are  offered 
the  opportunity  to  spend  one  weekend  together 
before  the  opening  of  the  Mack.  Members  of  the 
Orientation  Committee  serve  as  Big  Brothers 
and  Big  Sisters  to  the  new,  rather  apprehensive 
students.  Each  day,  at  least  once,  the  groups 
gather,  and  Orientation  Committee  members 
lead  discussions  on  a various  array  of  topics. 
During  these  gatherings,  friendships  are  formed 
that  last  an  eternity. 

Members  of  the  Orientation  Committee  offer 
a great  deal  of  time  and  compassion  to  the  often 
timid  freshmen.  They  strive  to  ease  new  students 
into  the  wonderful  world  of  Merrimack  College.

Registration 

Reservations 


Joy  and  rest  are  not  all  that  the  holiday  brings.  With  it  comes  the  responsibility  of  preparing  for  the  upcoming  semester, 

as  well  as  meeting  the  deadlines  from  the  old  one.  One  of  the  responsibilities  at  this  time  is  registering  for  the  spring  semester. 
As  a freshman,  1 wasn't  sure  what  to  expect,  so  1 approached  the  whole  event  with  an  open  mind,  and  the  promise  that  1 would 
not  take  anymore  8:00  classes  unless  absolutely  necessary. 

When  talking  to  a few  friends  on  campus  who  had  already  gone  through  the  process  before,  their  reaction  was  not  at 
all  favorable.  Sophomore  Steve  Moscaritolo  identified  a major  hindrance  which  he  encountered.  "The  lines  are  unbearable, 
especially  for  drop-  add."  The  recurring  complaint  regarding  the  lines  was  present  in  almost  every  comment  about  registration. 
Eric  Brown,  a junior  Physics  major  explained,  "The  lines  are  so  long,  waiting  in  them  is  a way  of  life."  To  say  the  least,  1 was  in 
no  hurry  to  register. 

The  first  stop  on  my  path  to  registration  was  advisement.  1 must  have  either  been  lucky  or  early,  because  it  seemed  that 
all  the  classes  that  1 wanted  to  take  were  open,  and  at  the  times  1 wanted  them.  However,  the  simplicity  of  the  routine  did  not 
fill  me  with  ease,  but  with  skepticism  of  what  must  be  next. 

As  1 waited  for  my  appropriate  day  and  time  to  bring  my  course  sheet  to  be  completed,  I talked  to  various  other  people. 
One  freshman,  Carolvn  Troy,  commented  about  this  final  step.  "Even  if  you  get  your  course  sheet  filled  out  ahead  of  time,  you 
still  have  to  wait  until  the  time  that  was  given  to  you.  I don't  think  it  should  go  by  alphabetical  order,  because  people  at  the  end 
of  the  list  will  not  have  as  many  classes  still  open  to  them.  It  should  be  first  come  first  serve."  Michael  Burt,  another  freshman 
who  was  caught  in  the  bureaucracy  of  the  system  merely  commented  that  it  was  a slow,  difficult  process. 

After  speaking  to  these  other  students  about  the  process,  I was  shocked  to  see  just  how  many  students  really  did  not  know 
how  it  actually  worked.  Eor  example,  most  students,  (including  myself)  thought  that  it  worked  by  alphabetical  order.  In  truth, 
it  actually  works  on  a lottery  system  based  upon  how  many  courses  hav'e  been  taken.  Not  only  was  there  this  problem  with  not 
understanding  how  the  process  worked,  but  there  was  also  a feeling  of  being  uninformed  about  where  to  go  and  when. 

When  the  time  came  for  me  to  register,  my  thoughts  darted  back  to  the  warnings  I had  received  concerning  the  long 
lines  and  endless  frustration  that  I would  face.  Again,  I must  hav'e  been  lucky.  I went  to  Austin  Hall,  walked  into  the  office, 
registered,  and  left.  This  process  that  had  been  depicted  as  such  a horror  took  me  only  about  five  minutes.  For  others,  however, 
long  lines  twisted  and  turned,  frustration  intensified  as  so  many  stood  and  waited  for  their  turn.  What  was  the  difference?  Why 
was  it  that  some  students  had  no  problems,  while  others  had  nothing  but  difficulty?  This  is  a question  for  which  I have  not  yet 
found  an  answer. 

What  would  some  of 
the  students  do  to  improve 
the  stressful  process?  For  the 
harrowing  routine  of  add- 
drop,  could  a phone-  in 
system  be  initiated?  Could 
more  registration  stations  be 
set  up? 

As  for  now  it's  in  the 
past...Asafreshman  who  will 
undoubtedlv  need  to  re-live 
the  experience,  1 must  say  that 
1 am  glad  1 now  know  what 
it's  all  about.

Right  Here... 


beginning  of  the  race  there 
are  too  many  candidates,  but 
quickly,  the  numbers  drop. 

In  this  election.  Senators  Bob 
Kerrey  and  Tom  Markin  were 
among  the  first  to  drop  out. 
Recently,  former  Senator 
Paul  Tsongas  decided  to 
follow  their  footsteps,  and 
also  withdraw  his 
candidacy..  Did  he  make  the 
right  choice?  Although  he 
has  been  fairly  successful  in 
conveying  his  ideas  to  the 
American  public,  the  general 
consensus  still  seems  to 
suggest  that  people  fear  that 
he  lacks  the  necessary 
charisma  to  affect  the  morale 
of  the  American  public  in  a 
positive  enough  fashion. 

As  a result  of  this 
rapidly  revolving  door  that 
curses  the  democrats,  voters 
are  left  with  little  choice: 
Arkansas  Governor  Bill 
Clinton  or  former  California 
Governor  Jerry  Brown. 
Arkansas  Governor  Bill 
Clinton  has  emerged  as  the 
front  runner  among  the 
contenders  for  the 
Democratic  party 
nomination.  Early  in  the 
campaign,  Clinton  was 
plagued  by  various  rumors  of 
his  adulteiA'  and  alleged  draft 
dodging.  Surprisingly,  his 
momentum  suggests  that  he 


The  Democratic  Party.  Can  the  odds  be  overcome?  Despite  the  revolving  door  that  plagues  the  underdogs,  in 
1993,  could  a Democrat  make  his  way  into  the  office? 


The  past  two  years 
have  been  nothing  less  than 
eventful.  The  dissolving  of 
the  Soviet  Union,  the  Gulf 
War,  as  well  as  the  Winter 
Olympic  games  have 
collectively  kept  the 
American  public  glued  to  the 
television  and  newspapers. 

A new  event,  howev'er,  is 
taking  center  stage  in 
America's  eye  - the  1992 
presidential  campaign.  As 
usual,  the  nation  is  divided 
over  the  candidates. 

The  Republicans  are 
led  by  President  George 
Bush.  He  leads  the 
Republican  party  in  delegates 
for  the  party  nomination. 

His  platform  is  based  on  the 
issues  of  the  national  debt, 
health  care  and  the  state  of 
the  economy,  f le  promises  to 
solve  these  problems  through 
various  methods.  His 
promises,  however,  do  not 
carry  much  weight  with  the 

12 


American  people  right  now. 
Most  likely,  this  is  because  he 
went  back  on  his  promise  of 
"no  new  taxes." 

Additionally,  President  Bush 
even  termed  himself  "the 
education  president,"  but 
failed  to  deliv'er  in  that  area 
as  well.  In  his  latest 
campaign  speech.  President 
Bush  asked  the  American 
public  for  four  more  years  to 
try  again.  Most  people  do 
not  want  to  give  him  that 
chance. 

Pat  Buchanan  is  also 
campaigning  for  the 
Republican  party 
nomination.  People  respect 
him  most  for  his  campaign 
strategy  centered  around 
President  Bush's  broken  "no 
new  taxes"  promise. 

Reaction  to  these  ads  was  the 
same  with  everyone  1 spoke 
to  - "it's  too  bad  a Democrat 
didn't  get  a hold  of  this  idea 
first."  Maybe  in  a few  years, 
when  he  has  more  political 
experience,  Buchanan  will  be 


a healthy  contender  for  the 
Republican  nomination. 

The  Democrats  have 
long  been  under  public 
scrutiny.  Most  of  their 
problems  lie  with  the  fact 
that  they  lack  viable 
candidates  that  the  public  can 
respect.  The  Democrats 
almost  always  seem  to  be  the 
underdogs.  At  the 


has  overcome  these  obstacles. 
As  it  was  expected  Tsongas 
did  have  a strong  showing  in 
the  Northeastern  primaries, 
but  it  was  Clinton  who  swept 
the  southern  primaries  on 
Super  Tuesday.  Jerry  Brown 
suffers  from  a problem 
similar  to  that  of  Paul 
Tsongas,  a lack  of  name 
recognition.  Despite  the  more 
preferable  stances  he  may 
take  on  certain  issues,  in  his 
quest  to  please  the  "little 
people,"  he  is  sometimes 
accused  of  neglecting  the 
views  of  the  majority. 

Another  candidate, 
Ralph  Nader,  has  chosen  to 
run  on  the  none  of  the  above 
platform.  He  is  attempting  to 
get  a void  election  by 
convincing  people  to  vote  for 
no  one,  so  new  candiciates 
will  be  forced  to  enter  the 
election.  Although  people 
like  his  ideas,  they  are  not 
sure  if  they  want  to  take  the 
i course  of  action  he  suggests. 

In  one  sense,  Mr.  Nader  could 
jalmost  be  compared  to  an 
’accident  on  the  freeway.  One 
f those  incidents  where 
everyone  wants  to  see  the 
ause  of  the  commotion,  but 
no  one  really  wants  to  get 
involved. 

It  seems  as  if  the  list 
of  candidates  has  run  out. 
However,  despite  our 
dissatisfaction  with  the  pool 
of  candidates,  we  are  still  left

always  1996...

Senior  Myths 


\A/^ e came  to  Merrimack  naive  freshmen,  unaware  of  what  lay  ahead.  As  orientation  waned  and  classes  began,  reality 

hit.  This  was  to  be  a long,  difficult  journey,  complete  with  obstacles  for  us  to  dodge  and  hurdles  to  jump. 

VVe  continued  our  academic  pursuit,  and  somewhere  along  the  way,  lost  what  sense  of  reality  we  had.  Anxiously 
awaiting  our  senior  year,  we  anticipated  an  easy  finish  to  our  college  careers.  This  was  not  to  be,  however,  as  senior  year  has 
arrived  and  our  fairy  tale  worlds  have  been  shattered  once  more... 

Senior  year  is  anything  but  easy.  Just  ask  the  members  of  the  class  of  1992.  As  seniors  we  are  subjected  to  seminars, 
directed  studies,  internships,  student  teaching  and  courses  required  to  complete  our  curriculum,  such  as  business  policy.  These 
all  require  large  amounts  of  our  time  and  energy. 

How  could  one  possibly  think  her  last  semester  would  be  easy?  'T  only  have  three  classes.  I'll  have  plenty  of  free  time." 
Combine  those  three  classes  with  a twenty  hour  a week  internship,  part  time  employment  and  participation  in  campus 
organizations  and  you'll  soon  see  the  error  of  your  ways,  as  well  as  the  meaning  of  sleep  deprivation. 

Even  classes  that  are  termed  "blow  offs"  are  not  easy.  The  professors  are  often  unorganized  and  uninspiring.  They  fail 
to  provide  a learning  environment,  often  not  even  passing  out  a syllabus.  How  are  we  to  manage  our  time  effectively  if  our 
professors  do  not  cooperate  by  providing  a schedule  for  exams  and  papers? 

In  addition  to  our  academic  workload,  seniors  must  plan  for  their  future.  There  are  resumes  to  be  prepared,  interviews 
to  go  on,  entrance  exams  to  be  taken  and  applications  to  be  filled  out.  We  are  constantly  plagued  by  inquiries  about  our  future 
plans  - "What  are  you  doing  after  graduation?"  "1  don't  know  yet.  I'm  only  21  - you  expect  me  to  have  my  entire  life  planned 
out  already?"  This  is  exactly  what  is  expected  of  us.  We  are  either  to  have  a job  lined  up  or  have  been  accepted  to  law  school 
or  a graduate  program,  all  well  before  spring  break  rolls  around.  We  are  to  have  our  lives  planned  out,  as  if  that's  possible,  and 
are  met  with  disapproving  looks  when  we  express  our  uncertainty. 

With  all  of  these  responsibilities  and  pressures,  when  is  one  to  find  time  for  even  a moderate  social  life?  After  all,  senior 

year  is  all  fun  and  games,  isn't  it?  . , „ „

The  Road  Not  Taken 


Two  roads  diverged  in  a yellow  wood. 
And  sorry  1 could  not  travel  both 
And  be  one  traveler,  long  1 stood 
And  looked  down  one  as  far  as  1 could 
To  where  it  bent  in  the  undergrowth; 

Then  the  other,  as  just  as  fair. 

And  having  perhaps  the  better  claim. 
Because  it  was  grassy  and  wanted  wear; 
Though  as  for  that,  the  passing  there 
Had  worn  them  really  about  the  same. 

And  both  that  morning  equally  lay 
In  leaves  no  step  had  trodden  black. 
Oh,  I kept  the  first  for  another  day! 
Yet  knowing  how  way  leads  on  to  way, 

I doubted  if  I should  ever  come  back. 

I shall  be  telling  this  with  a sigh 
Somewhere  ages  and  ages  hence: 
Two  roads  diverged  in  a wood,  and  I - 
I took  the  one  less  traveled  by. 

And  that  has  made  all  the  difference.

President's  Address 


Dciir  Members  of  the  Class  of  1W2: 

It  is  a pleasure  to  have  this  opportunity  to  address  you  on  the  publication  of  the  1992  Yearbook.  Your  theme  of  On 
the  Roiui  to  Success  is  one  that  is  indeed  very  fitting.  All  of  us  are  on  journeys  going  from  our  origins  to  our  final  destiny. 

I n the  course  of  that  journey,  there  are  many  challenges.  There  are  hopes  opportunities,  disappointments,  joys  and  sorrows. 
All  of  them  are  true  experiences  which,  though  sometimes  painful,  make  us  better  men  and  women  in  life's  journey. 

At  Merrimack  College,  we  hope  that  your  four  years  of  education  challenged  you  to  develop  your  full  potential 
intellectually,  physically,  and  spiritually.  We,  at  Merrimack,  hav'e  endeavored  to  give  you  educational  experiences  which 
will  make  you  a sensitive  and  caring  person. 

As  you  leave  Merrimack  College  and  beginto  pursue  your  life  in  a career,  building  a family  and  home  or  wherever 
your  journey  takes  you,  it  is  my  wish  for  you  that  you  will  find  sweet  joys  and  sustenance  in  your  friends  and  family  and 
in  the  community  that  you  have  built  here  at  Merrimack.  We  believe  that  we  have  taught  you  well  the  skills  you  need  in 
order  to  be  successful  in  a career.  But,  most  importantly,  we  hope  that  we  have  broadened  your  horizons  to  look  within 
yourself  in  order  to  bring  out  of  yourself  those  strengths  that  are  needed  to  make  your  life  truly  one  of  quality.  There  is  an 
old  adage  that  Life  is  to  be  Lived  and  not  Endured,  and  I believ'e  this  is  true;  however,  if  we  are  to  live  a quality  life,  we  really 
need  to  contemplate  what  it  is  all  about.  What  are  the  things  that  really  are  of  value  to  us.  What  is  it  that  we  really  want 
to  do  with  our  lives.  They  say  that  among  students  of  the  90s  there  is  a rebirth  of  v'olunteerism,  a keener  sense  of  the  need 
to  serve  one  another.  1 believe  that  this  is  true  especially  of  your  class.  You  have  taken  the  opportunity  to  reach  out  to  the 
poor  and  homeless,  those  who  are  afflicted  by  diseases  and  addictions;  you  have  taken  the  time  to  reflect  upon  the  issues 
of  the  times;  to  be  more  aware  of  people  and  of  their  orientations  and  of  their  needs  and  struggles.  You  have  made  it  known 
that  you  are  willing  to  be  of  help  to  make  this  a better  world.  I know  that  as  you  go  forth  from  this  College,  you  will  indeed 
make  a difference  because  you  understand  a life  that  is  lived,  must  be  lived  in  reflection  of  values  and  goals.  You  are  on 
your  road  to  success  because  you  have  understood  that  life  is  much  more  than  any  one  event,  one  triumph.  It  is  the 
combination  of  many  things  and  these  many  things,  of  course,  in  their  totality  are  what  makes  it  all  worth  while.  You  should 
be  excited  about  the  opportunities  that  are  yours  in  the  decade  of  the  90s. 

1 salute  you  on  the  successes  that  you  have  already  accomplished  on  your  journey,  and  ask  that  God  will  bless  you, 
and  your  future  endeavors.  I am  sure  that  if  you  are  faithful  to  the  values  that  were  instilled  in  you  by  your  parents  and 
were  nurtured  by  this  College,  that  you  will  indeed  have  a successful  journey.  1 urge  you  to  go  forth  on  your  restless 
journeys  seeking  always  truth-  the  truth  that  St.  Augustine  so  sought;  the  truth  that  he  believed  would  certainly  lead  to 
wisdom,  which  is  God. 


Sincerely, 

Rev.  John  E.  Deegan,  O.S.A.

Nature  first  green  is  gold, 
her  hardest  hue  too  hold, 
her  hearly  leaf's  a flower; 
but  only  so  an  hour. 

Then  leaf's  subsides  to  leaf, 
So  eden  sank  to  grief, 
so  dawn  goes  down  today. 
Nothing  gold  can  stay.

As  a resident  of  Gonic,  New 
Hampshire  this  fifth-year  co-op 
student  has  made  the  most  of  his 
time  spent  here.  David  was  a finance 
major  with  an  economics  minor.  He 
chose  to  come  to  Merrimack  College 
because  he  used  to  live  in  the  area 
when  he  was  younger  and  he  liked 
it.  Beyond  David's  hectic  academic 
schedule,  he  also  found  the  time  to 
become  involved  in  many 
organizations.  He  is  a member  of 
Omicron  Delta  Epsilon,  the 
Economics  Honor  Society,  and  the 
Co-op  Council.  David  has  also 
received  several  academic 
scholarships  and  the  Financial 
Executive  Institute  Award  for  his 
outstanding  accomplishments. 
David  feels  Coop  makes  you  v'ery 
mature  and  makes  you  take 
responsibility.  One  thing  it  has 
shown  him  is  that,  "if  there  is  a job 
out  there  that  you  want,  then  it  is  up 
to  you  to  go  get  it.  You  can't  rely  on 
anyone  else  to  get  it  for  you.  Co-op 
has  given  me  confidence,  but  made 
me  realize  my  limitations."  David's 
advice  to  incoming  and  current 
students  is  to  really  get  involved  in 
something.  There  are  many 
organizations  on  campus  that  are 
v'ery  rewarding.  David  explains, 
"there  is  so  much  more  to  college 
than  just  books,  papers  and  tests." 
He  believes  that  Merrimack  really 
fosters  that  and  it  gives  you  a life 
long  relationship  with  people. 

One  thing  that  David  would  like  to 
see  at  the  college  is  a greater  level  of 
attention  given  to  students'  needs. 
He  feels  that  many  times  academic 
and  personal  needs  are  overlooked. 
Finally,  David  would  like  to  thank  a 
couple  of  people  for  making  his 
college  career  a successful  and 


rewarding  time.  Thank-you  to: 
Neil,  for  helping  him  be  successful 
in  co-op;  Dr.  Laramie  and  Prof. 
Quinn,  for  challenging  him  to 
realize  his  academic  potential;  his 
friends  at  Merrimack  for  the  good 
times;  Nancy  for  all  her  support; 
his  brother  and  sister;  and, 
especially  his  parents  for  the 
sacrifices  they  made  so  that  he 
could  go  to  college.

"Nothing  is  impjossible  if  you 
want  it  bad  enough." 

An  international  business 
major  from  Malden,  MA, 
Christine  Amato  exemplifies 
this  statement.  Chrissy 
overcame  a serious  illness 
during  her  freshman  and 
sophomore  years  to  become 
a true  asset  to  the  college 
community. 

The  recipient  of  the  Student 
Personnel  Award,  Chrissy 
has  serveci  in  various 
leadership  positions  during 
her  four  years  at  Merrimack. 


She  was  President  of  the  Class 
of  1992  for  three  years, 
fundraiserof  PiTheta  Epsilon 
and  Vice  President  of  the 
International  Business  Club. 
She  was  also  one  of  the 
founding  members  of  MCS 
Productions  and  an 
Orientation  Committee 
Member. 

Chrissy  is  most  proud  of  her 
accomplishments  as  PTE 
fundraiser  and  Class 
President.  She  worked  single- 
handedly  for  two  years  to 
organize  a carnival  for  the 
college  community.  The

carnival  became  a reality  in  April  of  1992.  As  part 
of  Spring  Week,  Eiesta  Shows  put  on  an  incredibly 
successful  carnival.  Brought  about  by  Chrissy's 
hard  work,  the  carnival  will  be  an  annual  event. 
Chrissy's  work  as  class  president  is  another  of  her 
contributions  to  Merrimack  College.  One  of  the 
traditions  started  when  Chrissy  served  as  President 
was  the  Superbowl  Sunday  Party,  which  has 
become  an  annual  event. 

Chrissy  received  an  award  for  Outstanding 
Leadership  in  1990.  She  has  also  worked  in  the 
Security  office  for  three  years. 

When  asked  about  obstacles  facing  Merrimack, 
Chrissy  pointed  out  the  financial  difficulties  the 
school  is  facing,  citing  the  recent  layoffs  as  an 
example.  She  also  believes  the  cost  of  education  is 
an  obstacle  for  many.  She  believes  Merrimack 
needs  more  activities  to  attract  students,  as  well  as 
special  academic  programs,  such  as  an  honors 
program. 

Chrissy  would  like  to  thank  Professors  Rich  Duval 
and  Quinn  for  their  assistance  through  difficult 
times,  as  well  as  their  help  in  her  decision  making 
and  their  friendships.  She  would  also  like  to  thank 
the  individuals  in  the  security  office  "for  everything 
they've  done  for  me  and  all  their  support." 
"Thanks  to  my  roommates,  Maura,  Marion  and 
Paula,  for  their  support  and  friendship.  We've 
been  through  a lot.  Thanks  for  making  all  our 
stupid  A5  tricks  possible." 

"Thank  you  Mom  and  Dad  for  supporting  and 
encouraging  my  decision  to  come  to  school  despite 
my  illness.  Thank  you  for  lef  ting  me  make  my  own 
decisions  and  for  standing  behind  me  in  those 
decisions."

A 


NIKE  says  “Just  Do  It.."  REEBOK 
says  "Play  I lard.."  Phil  Bellissimo 
says  "Get  I lungry-" 

Phil  Bellissimo  is  an  international 
business  major  from  Manhasset, 
Long  Island.  He  has  contributed 
his  time  and  effort  to  various 
components  of  Merrimack 
College.  A Cooperative 
Education  student,  he  has  run 
Cross  Country,  been  a member  of 
the  Orientation  Committee,  and 
served  on  the  M.O.R.E.  Council. 
Through  his  membership  of  the 
Nu  Phi  Kappa  fraternity  he  has 
serv'ed  as  the  Chairman  for  the 
Party  for  Panama  and  has  also 
spent  time  involved  with  the 
related  program  in  which  they 
bowl  with  retarded  citizens. 
Reflecting  upon  these 
memberships,  he  holds  his 
position  in  the  fraternity  in  a 
special  regard.  "Through  the 
fraternity  I have  done  so  much. .It 
has  made  me.  The  influence  of 
the  members  has  prov'en  to  be  an 
effectiv'e  foundation  for  my 
schooling."  He  will  also  always 
view  his  membership  in  the 
Athletic  program  in  a special  light. 
"Participatmn  in  Cross  Country 
gave  me  a sense  of  confidence 
and  pride.,  to  be  able  to  say  that  I 
went  out  and  ran  ten  miles.."  On 
the  other  hand,  he  will  view  his 
membership  in  the  Cooperative 
Education  program  as  a 
rewarding  challenge.  It  wasoften 
brutal  being  in  the  classrooms 
during  those  hot  summer  days 
and  he  would  like  to  thank 
Michael  Provenzano  for  all  of  his 
support. 


As  Merrimack  moves  towards  the  future,  Phil  would  like  to  sc^e  the 
Administration  listen  to  the  more  sensible  ideas  of  the  students.  After  all, 
"we  are  paying  to  go  here,  and  if  our  ideas  are  not  just  silly  and  pointless, 
we  should  be  respected,  listened  to,  and  treated  like  adults."  Phil  would 
also  like  to  urge  the  underclassmen  not  to  "judge  a book  by  its  cover."  Give 
everyone  a fair  chance  and  don't  ever  judge  too  quickly. 

Phil  would  like  to  thank  the  brothers  of  his  fraternity  for  their  friendship 
and  support.  Specifically,  he  would  like  to  thank  Georgie  C.  and  .Marc 
Blanchard.  1 le  would  also  like  to  thank  Professor  Kandra  for  influencing 
him  and  showing  him  that  sometimes  it  is  not  just  the  grade,  but  the 
personality  in  the  student  that  counts.  He  would  also  like  to  give  special 
thanks  to  both  of  his  parents  for  their  endless  support.

"Busy"  is  the  word  to 
describe  Wayne  Bishop. 
Throughout  his  four  years 
here,  Wayne  was  a 
Eucharistic  minister,  a tour 
guide,  junior/senior  class 
president  and  also  a brother 
of  the  fraternity  Delta  Phi 
Kappa.  He  also  took  part  in 
two  committees,  the  Task 
Force  Committee  and  the 
Assessment  Group 

Committee.  Wayne  enjoyed 
the  wide  variety  of  people 


he  encountered  at  Merrimack. 
"A  small  school  can  make  a 
difference."  When  Wayne  was 
class  president  the  class 
sponsored  an  Irish  Fest  and 
began  the  Senior  Ring 
Ceremony.  Wayne  would  like 
to  see  the  faculty  and 
administration  come  closer 
together  and  he  would  like  to 
see  students  get  involved  with 
the  different  activities  the 
school  has  to  offer.

Sharon  Chin  is  just  one  of  those 
people  that  can  make  you  smile  on 
even  your  worst  day.  It  is  rare  to  see 
her  in  anything  less  than  a sparkling 
mood. 

A participant  in  the  Cooperative 
Education  program,  Sharon  leaves 
Merrimack  College  with  both  her 
Bachelor  of  Science  degree  in 
Business  Administration  with  a 
concentration  in  marketing  and  a 
lifetime  of  memories. 

In  addition  to  serving  as  secretary  of 
the  Class  of  1991  for  two  years,  she 
was  also  a sister  in  the  SPO  sorority, 
and  on  the  Editorial  staff  of  the 
yearbook.  Sharon  explains,  "I  was 
most  proud  of  my  role  on  the  Class 
Council.  In  that  role,  I got  to  have  a 
say  in  what  went  on  in  the  entire 
college  community,  unlike  SPO, 
when  it  was  just  what  went  on  within 
our  sorority."  Considering  these 
activities,  it  should  be  no  surprise 
that  Sharon  advises  underclassmen, 
"Get  involved..  Try  to  be  a part  of 
something  because  that  is  how  you 
get  to  know  more  students,  faculty, 
and  staff." 

Sharon  was  drawn  to  Merrimack  for 
reasons  similar  to  many  other 
members  of  the  class.  "I  am  from  the 
Merrimack  valley  area.  1 have  known 
of  Merrimack  for  some  time..  It  was 
close.,  but  far  enough  so  1 could  live 
there." 

In  her  days  at  Merrimack,  two  of  her 
Marketing  professors  have  left  long 
lasting  impressions:  Professor  Stasio 
and  Dr.  Corbett.  "Professor  Stasio 
for  showing  us  the  importance  of 
discipline  and  Dr.  Corbett  for  always 
sharing  his  outside,  practical 
experiences." 

Sharon  would  like  to  thank  her 


friends-  "the  fluffernutter  crew" 
for  always  being  there.  She 
would  also  like  to  thank  her 
parents,  her  brother,  and  her 
sister  for  being  a loving  and 
caring  family.

A charter  member  of  the 
fraternity,  Tau  Kappa  Epsilon, 
Rich  Chirico  has  kept  himself 
very  occupied  at  Merrimack. 
His  involvements  include 
Sargent  at  Arms  and  Historian 
of  TKE,  a Eucharistic  Minister, 
member  of  the  Accounting  and 
Einance  Society  and  team 
leader  in  the  M.O.R.E. 
program.  He  was  also  the 
founcier  of  his  intramural 
basketball  team,  "The  Heat." 
Rich  was  an  accounting  major 
from  Primos, Pennsylvania.  He 
is  grateful  that  he  has  gained 
valuable  friendships  and  a 


good  business  background. 
Rich  explains,  "You  have  to 
have  a balance  between 
school  and  your  social  life. 
It  is  hard  at  times,  but  get 
involved,  cion' t be  a number, 
meet  people."  Rich  is 
enrolling  in  graduate 
schools  where  he  hopes  to 
receive  an  MBA  and, 
hopefully,  to  someday  open 
up  his  own  CPA  firm. 

Rich  would  like  to  thank 
his  parents  for  the  many 
sacrifices  they  have  made 
and  his  sister  Laura  for 
being  a great  role  model.

An  english  major  from 
North  Reading,  Brian 
Courtemanche  spent  most 
of  his  time  at  Merrimack 
working  on  the  Argus, 
where  he  served  as  Editor 
in  Chief  and  News  Eciitor. 
Brian  would  like  to  be  an 
author  of  fiction  and  short 
stories,  but  his  ultimate 
dream  is  to  become  a 
published  writer  and  teach 
at  a college.  Of  course, 
before  doing  this,  Brian 
wants  to  see  more  of  the 
world  and  be  able  to  share 
his  experiences  with  others 


in  his  future  novels. 

Brian  says  that  college  has  been 
a happy  environment  especially 
since  he  met  his  girlfriend  Kelly 
here.  "College  is  an  expensive 
dating  service." 

Brian  would  like  to  see  more 
preparation  for  graduate  schools 
done  so  students  would  have  a 
smoother  transition  into  this 
stage  of  their  development.  He 
would  also  like  to  see  Co-op  for 
Liberal  Arts  students. 

Brian  urges  students,  "Get 
involved  with  as  many  people 
as  you  can.  Talk  to  students, 
faculty,  aciministration,  and

Deborah  D'Agati  is  a local  girl  from 
Andover.  She  wasalways impressed 
with  Merrimack  ev^en  in  high  school. 
As  an  english  major,  she  has  used 
her  writing  ability  to  the  fullest.  She 
is  a member  of  the  English  Club,  is 
involved  in  the  writing  center,  writes 
many  pieces  for  the  Alternative  Voice 
and  is  the  Editor  of  the  Argus. 

As  a graduating  senior,  she  would 
like  to  pass  along  some  advice  to 
those  incoming  freshmen,  “get 
involved  as  much  as  you  can,  four 
years  is  a long  time  to  be  some  place- 
you  might  as  well  make  yourself  at 
home.  Get  to  know  a lot  of  people 
and  learn  the  art  of  discipline." 

Deb  would  like  to  go  on  and  teach 
English  after  she  receives  her  Masters 
degree.  Over  the  years  some  of  the 
people  who  have  made  an  impact  on 
Deb's  life  are:  Dr.  Branca,  Dr. 
Mahoney,  and  Dr.  DeCiccio.  She 
feels  each  gave  her  the  incentive  to 
be  an  english  major  and  to  continue 
on  to  graduate  school.  Deborah 
would  also  like  to  thank  financial 
aid,  without  whom  she  wouldn't  be 
here.  Last,  but  not  least,  she  wishes 
to  thank  her  parents.

Pete  Davis  is  a resident  of 
Framingham,  Massachusetts. 
While  at  Merrimack,  Pete  has 
been  a member  of  the 
Lacrosse  team  and  a member 
of  the  American  Marketing 
Association.  He  has  grown 
to  really  like  the  students  here 
and  describes  the  student 
body  as  "a  good  mixture  of 
people." 

Although  Pete  has  enjoyed 
his  Merrimack  years,  he  does 
feel  certain  problems  should 
be  addressecf.  First  and 
foremost,  he  believes  that  the 


school  must  overcome  the 
obstacle  of  the  Lawrence 
Eagle  Tribune.  "We  get  too 
much  bad  publicity  from  the 
Tribune."  Second,  he 
identifies  the  lack  of  social 
events  sponsored  for  the 
students.  "Even  schools  of 
our  size,  such  as  Saint 
Michaels  or  Saint  Anselms  do 
more  in  this  area."  Einally,  he 
would  like  to  see  more 
support  given  to  the  athletic 
teams.  "A  lot  of  stucients  just 
don't  support  their  peers." 
Pete  would  like  to  thank  the

What  three  words  does  Todd 
Delvecchio  choose  to  liv'e  by? 
Persistence.  Determination. 
Improvisation.  Todd  explains,  "You 
need  to  have  the  ability  to  keep 
plugging  away  despite  negative 
answers.  You  may  get  a million 
'No's,'  but  ycm  have  to  keep  going." 
Todd's  persistance  and 
determination  to  succeed  has 
definitely  kept  him  busy  over  the 
past  few  years.  In  1986,  he  began  a 
business:  Blue  Water  Irrigation, 
which  installed  irrigation  systems 
for  both  residential  and  commercial 
outlets.  While  working  for  a 
dev'eloper,  Todd  got  various  leads 
for  potential  business  opportunities, 
and  eventually  would  see  his 
business  blossom  at  a rather 
reputable  rate,  to  eventually  reach  a 
point  where  it  could  support  his 
academic  pursuits.  Here  on  campus, 
Todd  has  worked  with  v'arious 
administrators  on  a wide  array  of 
projects.  As  a freshman,  he  worked 
with  the  Assistant  to  the  Academic 
Vice-President  on  the  study  abroad 
program.  As  a sophomore,  he 
worked  with  the  Dean  of  the  College 
on  various  computer  programs.  He 
has  also  worked  as  a resident 
assistant  and  has  been  a member  of 
the  American  Society  for  Civil 
Engineering.  Through  these 
experiences  Todd  has  learned  a 
valuable  lesson:  "Never  tell  someone 
else  what  to  do  - unless  you  are  fully 
prepared  to  do  it  yourself." 

When  this  resident  of  Winchester, 
Massachusetts  first  came  to 
Merrimack,  he  had  planned  on  being 
a marketing  major.  After  completing 
his  freshman  year,  however,  Todd 
re-evaluated  the  direction  of  his 
studies  and  decided  to  transfer  into 
the  civil  engineering  program.  Todd 
defied  the  odds,  and  managed  to 


complete  an  extremely  demanding  course  load  of  work  in  three  years.  It  wa*' 
a definite  challenge  to  successfully  complete  such  a highly  structurec 
curriculum  in  such  a disrupted  order.  In  some  cases,  Todd  was  taking  hispre 
requisites  after  the  classes  they  were  supposed  to  precede. 

Todd  identifies  somedefiniteobstaclesthat  Merrimack  will  facein  the  future 
enrollment  and  financial  costs.  It  will  be  a constant  challenge  to  attrac 
students  as  the  pool  of  applicants  dwindles  down  and  costs  continue  to  rise 
I le  would  also  like  to  see  both  the  Placement  Office  and  the  Alumni  Directo 
at  .Merrimack  re-evaluate  the  present  networking  system.  Communicatioi 
must  be  improved,  for  in  these  rather  horrible  economic  times  students  neec 
help  finding  jobs. 

When  Todd  leaves  Merrimack,  he  hopes  to  obtain  employment  in  a smal 
engineering  firm.  He  would  like  to  be  involved  with  environmental 
geotechnical  - hazardous  waste  work. 

Todd  would  like  to  thank  his  friends  and  his  family  for  their  support.

A native  from  Fitchburg, 
Massachusetts,  Carol 
DiConza  enjoyed  her  time 
spent  at  Merrimack.  Carol 
gave  a lot  of  her  time  to  the 
Student  Government 
Association  where  she  was 
a member  at  large, 
chairperson  of  the  Public 
Relations  and  Elections 
Committees,  and  she  was 
also  a member  of  the  Student 
Judicial  Board.  A 
Psychology  major  with  a 
minor  in  elementary 
education,  Carol  was  also 
part  of  the  Education  Club. 


Being  this  involved  was  not 
that  easy.  There  were  many 
obstacles  she  had  to  face. 
Balancing  school  with  extra 
curricular  activities  is  not  that 
easy,  but  Carol  tells  students, 
"Not  to  let  things  pass  you  by. 
Take  full  advantage  of  the  four 
years  you  have  here  at 
Merrimack."  She  would  also 
like  to  see  students  make  their 
needs  known  to  the 
administration  as  well  as 
making  the  policies  of  the 
different  offices  known  to 
students.

Grog  Diidzic  was  born  in  I lamilton, 
Ontario  in  1969.  Two  years  later,  his 
family  moved  to  Southbury, 
Connecticut,  where  he  has  lived  ever 
since. 

Greg  decided  to  attend  Merrimack 
for  many  of  the  same  reasons  as  the 
rest  of  us.  1 le  liked  the  fact  that  it 
was  a small  Catholic  school,  he  liked 
thearea,and  heliked  theCooperative 
Education  program.  He  is  a dual 
major  of  management  and  religious 
studies.  This  summer  Greg  will 
continue  his  education  at  Merimack 
to  gain  a Bachelor's  degree  in 
religious  studies. 

Admittedly,  Greg  has  never  had  an 
easy  time  making  friends.  He 
explained  that  he  has  always  felt 
rather  alienated.  While  participating 
in  the  OnStagers  he  has  found  things 
to  be  somewhat  different,  howev'er. 
With  this  group,  he  has  been  able  to 
relax  anci  be  himself.  He  has  always 
enjoyed  the  theatrical  environment. 
He  was  especially  flattered  when,  at 
the  OnStager's  banquet  this  year,  a 
toast  was  made  in  his  honor  and  he 
received  a standing  ovation  for  his 
contributions  to  the  organization. 
Greg  concluded  his  interview  by 
explaining,  "The  road  to  success  isn't 
the  easiest  road,  nor  the  fastest  road. 
There  will  always  be  difficulties  and 
obstacles  to  face,  but  to  survive  them 
and  press  forward  is  what  success  is. 
Success  is  the  feeling  of 
accomplishment  that  comes  after  a 
hard  and  difficult  struggle.  Tc^ 
succeed  one  must  proceed  ever 
forward  to  face  the  future  with  an 
open  heart  and  an  open 
mind.. willing  to  change  and  to 
grow."

Anything  xvorth  doing  is  doing 
well. 

Christine  Dufresne  chooses 
these  words  to  live  by.  She 
believes  it  is  better  to  just  do 
a few  things,  but  to  give 
them  your  all.  During  her 
Merrimack  days,  Christine 
has  been  involved  with  the 
Intercultural  Club,  the 
American  Marketing 
Association,  has  held  an  E- 
Board  position  in  Sigma  Phi 
Omega,  has  taken 
photographs  for  the 
Merrimackan,  has 


participated  in  the  intramural 
program,  and  has  participated 
in  the  Urban  Institute  program 
as  a tutor  at  the  Frost  School. 
She  has  found  her  involvement 
with  the  Urban  Institute 
program  to  be  extremely 
rewarding,  and  would  like  to 
see  more  of  the  Merrimack 
students  become  familiar  with 
the  program  and  the  people 
involved. 

A resident  of  Atfleboro, 
Massachusetts,  this  avid

political  science.  When  asked  to  identify  one  of  the 
challenges  faced  by  Merrimack,  she  explained  the 
"continuous  need  for  more  people  to  get  involved. 
No  matter  what  an  individual  chooses,  whether  it 
be  supporting  a sport,  or  becoming  active  in  a club, 
students  need  to  show  a commitment." 

One  personal  obstacle  overcome  by  Christine 
revolved  around  her  desire  to  study  abroad.  As  an 
international  business  major,  she  believed  a semester 
abroad  would  be  extremely  beneficial. 
Unfortunately,  when  she  began  to  investigate  the 
program,  she  learned  that  financial  aid  is  not  offered 
for  overseas  studies.  She  was  determined  to  go,  and 
in  the  end,  her  persistence  would  be  rewarded.  She 
financed  the  trip  herself,  felt  an  even  greater  sense 
of  accomplishment,  and  truly  enjoyed  her  experience 
in  Spain. 

Christine  would  like  to  thank  the  Financial  Aid 
Office  and  the  Academic  Vice-President's  Office  for 
all  of  the  help  she  has  received  over  the  years. 
Additionally,  whe  would  like  to  thank  Professor 
Quinn  and  Professor  Rich-Duval.

Pat  Durante  is  a native  of  Saugus, 
Vlassachusetts.  fie  is  a computer 
science  major  who  has  spent  a lot  of 
time  becoming  involved  in  the 
college  community.  A member  of 
the  Argus  staff,  he  has  also  fou  nd  the 
time  to  be  a member  of  the 
Association  Computing  Machinery. 
In  this  organization,  he  has  held  the 
positions  of  treasurer  for  two  years 
and  chairman  for  two  years.  Besides 
being  actively  involved  in  the  social 
organizations  at  Merrimack,  Pat  has 
also  received  several  awards  for  his 
academic  ability.  He  is  a Presidential 
Scholar  and  is  listed  in  Who's  Who 
in  American  Colleges  and 
Universities. 

A Cooperative  Education  student 
and  the  "Co-op  of  the  Year,"  Pat 
feels  that  withc^ut  cooperative 
education  experience,  " you  are 
leaving  college  with  two  broken  legs 
and  arms."  Along  with  the  advdce  to 
be  a part  of  the  co-op  program,  Pat 
also  has  this  bit  of  advice  to  pass 
along,  "Be  creative  and  get 
involved." 

As  a fifth-year  student,  he  is 
frustrated  with  student  involvement 
on  campus.  1 le  feels  people  are 
apathetic  and  hypocritical.  The 
memories  that  he  takes  away  with 
him  are  the  ones  that  he  made  by 
being  a part  of  the  social  activities  on 
campus. 

Patrick  just  "wants  to  be  out  there 
and  make  a contribution  to  the 
world."  He  would  like  to  thank  the 
Argus  staff  for  letting  him  be  creative. 
And  a special  thank  you  to  his  mom 
for  being  there  and  helping  with  the 
fundage.

Leanne  Garvey  is  a 
psychology  major  who  hails 
from  Westborough, 
Massachusetts.  While  at 
Merrimack,  Leanne  has 
contributed  serious  time 
and  effort  to  various  campus 
organizations.  She  has 
worked  as  an  Orientation 
Coordinator  for  the 
Orientation  Committee,  has 
enjoyed  the  experience  of 
beingonaM.O.R.E.  Retreat 
team,  and  has  been  a 
member  of  the  Psychology 
Club.  She  will  always 
remember  her  participation 


on  the  retreat  team  as  one  of 
her  best  experiences  at 
Merrimack,  and  would  like  to 
thank  the  "Dream  Team"  for 
the  wonderful  memories.  At 
the  same  time,  she  believes  that 
her  greatest  overall 
contribution  to  Merrimack 
came  from  the  hard  work  she 
put  into  the  Orientation 
program.  "I  put  a great  deal 
into  it..  1 was  careful  never  to 
short  change  it." 

Like  many  of  us,  Leanne  was 
attracted  to  Merrimack's  small 
campus.  She  liked  the 
seemingly  pleasant  nature  of 


the  student  body,  for  the  positive  attitudes,  coupled 
with  the  smaller  size  would  facilitate  the  chances  of 
getting  to  know  more  people.  Looking  ahead,  she 
does  believe  that  there  are  definite  hurdles  that 
Merrimack  must  overcome.  "The  school  must  offer 
more  activities  that  please  and  interest  a greater 
percentage  of  the  student  population.  This  way, 
more  people  will  get  involved." 

Before  leaving  Merrimack,  and  entering  the  Boston 
College  School  of  Social  Work  in  pursuit  of  her 
Master's  Degree,  Leanne  urges  the  underclassmen, 
"Do  everything  you  can. .this  way,  you  get  the  most 
out  of  it.  Try  to  make  the  most  of  it  all.  It  gets  over 
too  fast." 

Leanne  would  like  to  give  special  thanks  to  her 
mother  for  always  being  there,  and  thanks  her 
roommates  and  friends  for  the  great  times;  "YOU 
GUYS  ARE  THE  BEST!"

A marketing  major  from  North 
llaledon.  New  Jersey,  Allison 
Golczewski  has  made  her  mark  at 
Merrimack.  Throughout  her  four 
years  at  Merrimack,  Allison  has  been 
a Eucharistic  Ministerand  a member 
of  the  Orientation  Committee. 
During  her  first  two  years  here  she 
decided  to  get  inv'olved  in  her  Class 
Council.  She  held  the  position  of 
vice  president  for  her  freshman  and 
sophomore  year.  During  that  time 
she  also  became  a sister  of  the  sorority 
Sigma  Phi  Omega.  She  became  active 
in  the  Greek  Council,  IFSC  and  she 
was  elected  president  her  first 
semester  junior  year. 

Allison  has  enjoyed  her  col  lege  years 
at  Merrimack  and  she  has  made 
many  friends  that  will  last  a life  time. 
Her  advice  to  students  is  to,  "Get 
involved  in  different  organizations 
which  will  help  you  like  school 
better.  It  will  also  help  with  meeting 
people."  She  also  hopes  that 
Merrimack  grows  enrollment  wise 
and  that  student  life  expands  and 
strengthens  as  well  as  Alumni 
relations. 

Allison  would  like  to  offer  special 
thanks  to  her  parents  for  their 
support  and  those  close  friends  for 
tons  of  fun,  support  and  memories.

God  grant  me  the  serenity  to 
accept  the  things  I cannot 
change,  the  courage  to  change 
the  things  I can,  and  the  icisd  om 
to  know  the  difference. 

Considering  the  various 
leadership  positions  and 
memberships  that  the  rather 
modest  Paul  Grenham  can 
proudly  list,  he  probably 
couldn't  have  chosen  a 
better  quote.  He  has 
definitely  made  his  mark 
here  at  Merrimack.  An

in  elementary  education. 


this  resident  of  Avon,

been  a member  of  M.O.R.E.

his  fraternity,  Nu  Phi  Kappa. 
Personally,  he  found  his 
participation  on  M.O.R.E. 
council  quite  rewarding,  while 
his  presidency  of  NPK  was 
special  in  a different  respect, 
for  it  allowed  him  to  give  back 
that  special  something  that  the 
fraternity  had  given  him 
throughout  the  years.

budget  his  time  in  a fashion  that  enabled  him  to  be 
a Co-Pounder  of  the  Education  Club,  a Resident 
Assistant  and  even  a tutor  in  the  Writing  Center. 
Paul  would  like  to  pass  on  his  own  words  of  wisdom 
to  the  underclassmen.  "Getting  involved  is  the  best 
thing  you  can  do.  You  have  the  opportunity  to  meet 
a variety  of  people..  But,  be  sure  to  look  out  for 
yourself-  when  you  get  tied  down  with  too  many 
things  it  is  easy  to  forget  about  yourself.  Make 
things  you  get  involved  in  part  of  what  you  do,  but 
save  time  for  yourself." 

Paul  would  like  to  thank  the  Campus  Ministry  Staff, 
the  Writing  Center  Staff  and  Anne,  Liz,  Tammy, 
Sharon,  Sarah,  Karin,  T racey,  Rob,  Dave,  Scott,  Mike, 
and  the  rest  of  his  friends  for  their  support  and 
friendship  during  his  Merrimack  years.  These 
people  have  definitely  made  his  days  at  Merrimack 
more  enjoyable  and  more  memorable. 

He  would  also  like  to  give  a very  special  thanks  to 
his  family:  Tommy,  Kathy,  Lisa,  Michael,  and 
"MOST  OF  ALL.,  to  MOM  for  always  being  there 
and  for  making  the  sacrifices  that  truly  made  this  all 
possible."

Four  years  ago,  Liz  1 lamp  did  not 
really  know  if  she  even  wanted  to  go 
to  College.  She  waited  until  the  last 
minute  to  begin  the  application 
process.  None  of  the  initial  schools 
that  she  visited  really  managed  to 
stir  her  emotions.  Over  and  over  she 
was  left  with  the  same  sort  of 
impression,  “It  was  nice,  but..."  But 
then,  as  a last  resort,  she  came  to  look 
at  Merrimack.  One  person  took  two 
seconds  to  simply  say,  “Hi,  how  are 
you  doing?"  It  was  a small,  rather 
insignificant  exchange,  but  there  was 
something  about  the  friendliness  of 
the  people,  as  well  as  a definite 
charm,  that  attracted  Liz  to  our  little 
school  on  Turnpike  Street. 
Undoubtedly,  this  english  major 
from  Maine  made  the  right  decision 
to  pursue  a collegiate  education.  One 
of  the  founding  members  of  the 
Education  Club,  this  sister  of  Xi 
Lambda  Psi  has  also  been  involved 
with  M.O.R.E.  and  the  Orientation 
Committee. 

Despite  the  various  charms  of 
Merrimack,  Liz  does  identify  areas 
in  which  it  could  benefit  by 
improvement.  She  would  “like  to 
see  Merrimack  incorporate  greater 
diversity  among  the  people  who  go 
here,  while  keeping  it  small  enough 
to  maintain  the  qualities  that 
attracted  the  bulk  of  the  people  who 
go  here  in  the  first  place."  Liz  would 
also  like  to  see  more  women  in 
administrative  positions  and  in 
tenured  positions  on  the  faculty. 

Liz  urges  the  underclassmen,  “Keep 
everything  in  perspective.  Work 
hard  when  it's  time  to  work  hard. 
When  it's  not  time  to,  do  something 
else." 

In  closing,  Liz  would  like  to  thank 
the  “grossly  unrecognized"  faculty 
of  the  English  Department  for  going 


the  extra  mile,  and  being  truly  dedicated  to  the 
well-being  of  the  students.  Specifically,  she 
would  like  to  extend  thanks  to  “the  benevolent 
and  kind  advisor  that  she  was  blessed  with; 
Mary  K.  Mahoney."  Additionally,  she  would 
like  to  thank  her  roommates  and  closest  friends, 
Tammy  and  Anne  for  all  of  their  support.  To 
her  parents,  she  offers  the  most  special  thanks. 
“Mom  and  Dad  have  always  pushed  me  to  be 
the  best,  but  have  praised  me  for  what  1 have 
accomplished.  They  have  constantly 
encouraged  me  to  perservere,  and  have 
continuously  supported  me  both  financially 
and  emotionally."

Karen  Johnson  transferred 
to  Merrimack  2 and  1/2 
years  ago  from  what  most 
would  consider  a "perfect 
school"  with  beautiful 
facilities.  Karen,  however, 
identified  her  "experiences 
as  rather  hollow."  As  a 
result,  she  would  like  to  offer 
a few  words  to  the 
underclassmen..  "It's  easy 
to  complain  about  what 
Merrimack  doesn't  have, 
but  all  I can  think  of  is  what 
it  has  given  me.  Merrimack, 
has  been  for  me,  a wonderful 
place  to  learn  and  grow  as  a 


whole  person." 

A resident  of  Chelmsford, 
Massachusetts,  this 

mathematics  major  and 
education  minor  has 
contributed  significant  time  to 
various  organizations  on 
campus.  She  has  served  on 
team  for  the  M.O.R.E.  retreat 
program,  has  worked  on  the 
yearbook,  has  been  the  class 
secretary,  has  worked  as  a peer 
tutor  in  the  Math  Center  and 
she  has  also  earned  the  honor 
of  being  recognized  as  a 
Presidential  scholar. 

Additionally,  she  will  be  one

of  the  two  recipients  of  the  Joseph  P.  Daly  Award. 
Looking  into  the  future,  Karen  believes  that 
Merrimack  will  need  to  address  one  recurring 
problem:  "Students  want  a wide  variety  of  courses. 
Perhaps  Merrimack  should  consider  beginning  a 
graduate  school  program."  Karen  has  also  faced 
and  overcome  certain  personal  challenges.  For 
example,  she  learned  how  to  stop  complaining  and 
to  ensure  that  actions  be  taken..  "Mountains  can  be 
moved." 

Karen  would  like  to  commend  five  Augustinians  at 
this  school  for  doing  so  much  for  Merrimack,  and 
for  adding  so  much:  Father  Patrick,  Father  Kevin, 
Father  Tom,  Sister  Flaine  and  Father  Frank.  Not 
only  have  they  given  endless  time  and  support  to 
the  students,  but  they  have  also  helped  me  establish 
a "newfound  confidence  in  my  faith." 

Karen  would  like  to  thank  her  mother  and  father  for 
their  love,  support,  guidance  and  understanding. 
Without  the  compilation  of  these,  none  of  this  could 
be  established.  Next  year  at  this  time  she  would  like 
to  be  employed  as  a high  school  teacher.

Asa  typical  insecure  freshman,  Kate 
Jones  considered  leaving  school  at 
the  end  of  the  year.  The  Merrimack 
College  community  ought  to  be  glad 
this  psychology  major  from 
Waterbury,  Connecticut  put  those 
feelings  aside  and  returned  to  finish 
her  education.  Kate  has  held 
numerous  leadership  positions  in  her 
four  years  at  Merrimack,  including 
Secretary  of  Pi  Theta  Epsilon, 
Secretary  of  the  Psychology  Club 
and  Vice  President  of  S.O.A.R. 
(Students  Organized  Against 
Racism).  She  has  also  solicited  ads 
for  the  Merrimackan. 

In  August  of  1991,  Kate  was  forced 
to  deal  with  her  father's  untimely 
death.  Afraid  to  leave  her  mc')ther 
and  not  wanting  to  hide  her  true 
feelings  in  front  of  her  friends,  Kate 
thought  about  attending  a 
community  college  close  to  home. 
Her  mother  and  friends  encouraged 
Kate  to  come  back  to  Merrimack. 
She  remained  strong  and  returned 
for  her  senior  year. 

Kate  believes  that  Merrimack  could 
improve  itself  through  various 
measures  such  as  becoming  more 
involved  with  the  community  and 
diversifving  the  curriculum. 

Kate  points  out  the  racism  on  campus 
and  says  that  Merrimack  ought  to 
offer  programs  to  educate  people. 
She  suggests  a type  of  discussion  or 
forum  to  ease  people's  ignorance  and 
eliminate  the  use  of  stereotypes.  She 
also  believes  that  Merrimack  is  a 
sheltered  environment.  To  help 
overcome  this,  Kate  thinks 
Merrimack  ought  to  diversify  the 
student  population. 

Kate's  friends  at  home  and  school 
have  provided  her  with  inspiration 
and  love.  She  has  also  been  inspired 


by  her  father.  "1  le  accepted  me  for 
what  I am  and  gave  me  courage.  I 
want  to  thank  him  for  that."  It  was 
thiscourage  that  Kate  drew  on  at  the 
time  of  her  Dad's  death.  Kate  would 
also  like  to  thank  her  mother,  whom 
she  describes  as  "incredibly  strong. 
I can  only  hope  to  be  as  strong  willed, 
supportive  and  caring  a woman  that 
she  is  someday."  "Thanks  to  Beth, 
who  has  always  been  there  for  me."

Calvin  Lyles  was  an 
accounting  major  from 
Somerset,  New  Jersey.  He 
had  two  goals  when  he 
attended  Merrimack 
College  and  they  were  to 
graduate  and  win  a 
Northeast-10 
championship.  He  has  been 
an  active  member  of  the 
basketball  team  both 
physically  and  mentally. 
The  basketball  team  is  very 
involved  with  the  Lawrence 
Boy's  Club  and  through  this, 
Calvin  has  developed  great 
relations  with  some  of  the 


boys.  Throughout  his  four 
years  here,  he  has  also  been 
grateful  for  some  strong 
relationships  built  with  some 
of  the  faculty. 

He  would  like  to  thank  Prof. 
Nelson,  Prof.  Quinn,  Prof.  Kay 
and  especially  Prof.  Satcher 
who  looked  out  for  him  and 
guided  him,  and  also  his 
teammates  for  being  there 
through  rough  and  good  times. 
Calvin  would  like  to  see 
Merrimack  more  diversified.

to  feel  comfortable  in  this 
environment,  but,  with  the

proper  recruitment,  things  canbechanged  around." 
Calvin  leaves  Merrimack  saying,  "Face  the  challenge 
of  everything  here.  Be  positive  about  things. 
Negativity  will  not  get  you  anywhere."

You  don't  a second  chance  to  make  a 

first  impression.. 

Most  people  that  know  him  would 
agree  that  his  choice  of  this  quote  is 
perfectly  fitting.  Walter  Maganzini 
hasaspecial flareforlife.  "Naturally, 
1 want  people  to  like  me,  but  after  a 
while  you  have  to  stop  caring  about 
what  other  people  think.. and  care 
more  about  what  you  think  of 
yourself." 

Walter  Maganzini  is  a management 
major  from  Med  ford,  Massachusetts. 
He  has  added  his  special  touch  to 
various  clubs  and  organizations. 
Aside  from  participation  in  Cross 
Country  and  the  Ski  Club,  he  has 
been  a member  of  the  Orientation 
Committee,  on  team  and  a team 
leader  in  the  M.O.R.E.  program,  the 
treasurer  of  IFSC,  and  both  vice 
president  and  Pledge  Master  of  Nu 
Phi  Kappa.  Of  these  various 
memberships,  Walter  is  most  proud 
of  his  involvement  in  NPK.  "It  has 
taught  me  the  most.  It  has  taught  me 
how  to  be  a leader.  Additionally,  it 
has  shown  me  how  to  tackle  different 
problems." 

One  aspect  of  Merrimack  that  Walter 
believes  could  be  improved  are  the 
leadership  weekends.  "Although 
the  program  is  great  and  it  gives  a 
select  group  of  kids  the  feeling  that 
they  can  make  changes,  Walter 
would  like  to  see  the  weekends 
opened  up  to  a few  more  people.." 
Additionally,  he  feels  "they  need  to 
know  when  to  see  kids  as  adults  and 
when  to  see  kids  as  kids.  There  is  a 
time  and  a place  for  everything." 
Walter  will  fondly  remember  his 
days  at  Merrimack.  His  special 
memories  are  centered  around  the 


Killington  trips,  his  senior  year  spring  break 
in  the  Bahamas,  and  all  of  his  other  road  trips 
and  adventures.  "I've  always  had  a lot  of 
friends  here  that  are  older  than  me  (i.e.. 
George  Clement)  and  I've  learned  a lot  from 
them.  From  day  one,  1 made  the  friends  that 
I'm  still  friends  with  today. .it  seems  like  we 
just  got  here." 

"1  would  like  to  give  special  thanks  to  .Mom 
and  Dad  for  giving  me  the  chance  to  do 
everything  they  never  got  the  chance  to  do."

Like  so  many  of  us,  Mark 
Pulaski  was  attracted  to  the 
small  class  sizes  offered  at 
Merrimack.  He  liked  the 
fact  that  he  would  be  able  to 
enjoy  plenty  of  personal 
interaction  with  his  teachers. 
This  resident  of 
Newburyport, 
Massachusetts  graduated 
with  a degree  in  electrical 
engineering.  During  his 
four  years  at  Merrimack,  he 
was  a member  of  the  Men's 
Basketball  team  and  an 
active  member  of  The 
Institute  of  Electrical  and 


Electronics  Engineers.  He 
found  his  involvement  with  the 
Basketball  team  to  be  most 
rewarding.  Specifically,  he 
enjoyed  the  outside  programs 
that  the  basketball  team 
provided:  the  tutoring 
program  with  the  Lawrence 
Boys  Club  and  the  "Stay  in 
School"  and  anti-drug  lectures 
that  the  team  would  give  in  the 
area  grammar  schools. 
Undoubtedly,  the  most 
memorable  event  during  his 
participation  on  the  team  was 
the  Northeast-10 

Championship  series.

Looking  into  the  future,  Mark  would  like  to  see 
Merrimack  become  more  culturally  diversified.  He 
sees  this  as  one  of  the  greatest  present  obstacles  the 
school  needs  to  overcome.  For  Mark,  one  of  the 
greatest  personal  challenges  was  learning  to  budget 
his  time  between  the  practices,  games  and  a very 
difficult  course  load. 

Reflecting  upon  his  experience  at  Merrimack,  Mark 
says,  "I  never  met  anyone  at  Merrimack  who  wanted 
to  do  anything  but  help  me."  He  would  like  to 
thank  his  coaches,  teammates,  his  friends  and  his 
family  for  their  support  throughout  the  past  four 

years.  Heather  Fleming

As  a freshman.  Dawn 
Sinsigalli  knew  that  she 
really  wanted  to  get 
involved.  "At  times  1 was 
impulsive,  but  eventually,  1 
learned  the  importance  of 
balance."  She  has  been  an 
active  member  on  the 
Orientation  Committee, 
serving  as  both  a junior  and 
a senior  coordinator.  She 
remembers  her  experiences 
in  these  positions  as  some  of 
the  best  she  has  had  at 
Merrimack.  She  has  also 
been  a member  of  the 
M.O.R.E.  Council,  which  she 


found  equally  rewarding. 
Additionally,  as  a second 
semester  senior,  she  held  the 
position  of  Resident  Assistant 
at  the  Urban  Institute  facility 
in  Lawrence.  A well-rounded 
student,  her  placement  on  the 
National  Dean's  List  helps 
prove  her  dedication  to 
academic  excellence  as  well. 
Dawn  is  a management  major 
from  Haverhill,  Massachusetts.

growth..  I never  learned  as  much  in  another  four 
year  period  of  my  life."  However,  like  everything 
else,  Merrimack  could  benefit  from  improvement. 
As  Merrimack  surges  into  the  upcoming  years,  she 
would  like  to  see  the  faculty  and  administration 
increase  the  synchronization  of  their  efforts.  "They 
need  synergy.  The  students  should  be  treated  more 
like  a customer  than  is  typically  the  case." 

Dawn  urges  underclassmen,  when  you  want 
something,  go  after  it  and  just  do  it.  "People  should 
always  try  to  maximize  their  potential  and  never 
stop  the  growth  process  that  walks  in  step  with  that 
of  the  learning  process."  She  believes,  "you  can't 
really  give  people  advice..  They  will  do  what  they 
want  and  make  their  own  mistakes." 

Dawn  would  like  to  thank  the  staff  of  Campus 
Ministry,  Chief  Cain,  her  teachers  and  her  friends 
for  their  support  and  assistance  over  the  years. 
They  have  collectively  made  her  stay  far  more 
enjoyable  and  far  more  memorable.  She  would  like 
to  give  special  thanks  to  her  "friends  and  family  for 
their  support,  as  well  as  all  of  the  fun  and  good  times 
that  have  made  Merrimack  much  more  special."

As  cl  history  nidjor,  Karen  Smith  has 
o\’ercome  the  pre-conceived  notion 
that  haunts  so  many  students-  that 
deeply  imbedded  belief  that  "1  must 
graduate  with  a specific  degree  that 
will  get  me  a job."  She  no  longer 
feels  it  is  necessary  to  defend  her 
choice  to  be  a history  major  when 
countless  individuals  ask  her  "What 
can  you  do  with  that  major??"  She 
realizes  that  she  is  not  entirely  sure 
what  she  can  do,  but,  just  the  same, 
she  is  glad  that  she  exhibited  the 
conficience  to  pursue  it  anyway. 
Along  with  her  history  major,  Karen 
has  a minor  in  religious  studies.  This 
native  of  Bangor,  Maine  has  been 
involved  with  v^arious  intramural 
athletics  here,  as  well  Campus 
Ministry's  Peace  and  Social  justice 
Week,  the  Retreat  Program,  and 
Merrimaction.  She  believes  that  the 
Campus  Ministry  staff  has  played  a 
large  role  in  her  life  during  her  days 
at  Merrimack.  Not  only  have  the 
individuals  made  things  far  more 
pleasant,  but  they  have  also  taught 
hera  great  deal  about  herself  and  the 
people  around  her. 

Looking  into  the  future,  Karen  feels 
that  Merrimack  will  definitely  face 
its  share  of  challenges.  For  example, 
it  will  need  to  continue  to  strive 
towards  the  creation  of  an  overall 
sense  of  community — not  just 
between  all  faculty-all 
administration-and  all  students,  but 
between  each  of  the  groups.  The 
sizeable  barriers  need  to  be  broken 
down. 

Karen  cited  one  of  St.  Augustine's 
quotes  as  one  that  is  fairly 
representative  of  her  days  at 
Merrimack:  "My  friends  have  done 
much  to  repair  anci  remake  me."  She 


will  always  remember  fondly  the 
impact  that  both  Rob  and  Julie 
have  made  on  her  life. 

In  closing,  she  would  like  to  thank 
her  mother,  father,  Elaine,  joe, 
Patrick,  Kevin,  Maura  and  Frank 
for  their  continuous  support  over 
the  past  four  years.

Rob  Wilson  is  a political  science 
major  and  a European  history  minor 
who  hails  from  Bedford,  New 
1 lampshire.  Rob  has  been  an  active 
member  of  the  Student  Government 
Association,  M.O.R.E.  Council,  the 
Orientation  Committee  and  various 
other  committees.  He  has  also  been 
recognized  in  Who's  Who  in 
American  Collegesand  Universities. 
1 le  identifies  one  of  his  greatest 
contributions  to  Merrimack  as  his 
position  c^n  the  Student  Government 
Association.  "I  worked  hard  to  bring 
services  to  campus.  1 hoped  that 
what  1 could  bring  would  be  used 
and  appreciated  in  the  future." 

Like  others,  Rob  believes  that 
Merrimack  will  face  certain  obstacles 
in  the  coming  years.  "College  is 
becoming  more  and  more  expensive. 
As  a result,  there  are  less  students 
looking  to  attend . The  rich  can  afford 
school  - the  poor  can't."  He  hopes 
that  the  college  will  "continue  to 
excel  in  academics  and  will  maintain 
the  Catholic  identity  that  is 
responsible  for  drawing  many  of  us 
to  Merrimack." 

Rob  explained  how  certain  role 
models  at  Merrimack  have  helped 
him  to  mature  and  become  a better 
person.  "I  have  learned  how  to  accept 
people  around  me  - even  the  people 
1 may  not  agree  with.  1 have  learned 
that,  as  much  as  it  is  sometimes 
tempting,  we  can  never  just  make 
someone  go  away.  We  need  to  work 
together." 

Rob  urges  underclassmen,  "Don't 
be  afraid  to  try  anything.  At  least 
you  come  away  with  an  experience  - 
whether  it  be  good,  or  bad,  you  will 
learn  something  from  it." 

In  closing,  Rob  would  like  to  thank 


the  people  in  Campus  Ministry,  the 
Writing  Center  Staff,  and  to  offer  an 
extra-special  thanks  to  Eather  Patrick 
for  making  the  difference.  "Thank- 
you  to  my  family-  and  those  in 
Campus  Ministry  who  have  worked 
to  preserve  my  sanity."

diversified  group  of  students.  Additionally,  she 
would  like  to  see  more  student  oriented  activities 
offereci.  The  final  issue  she  believes  Merrimack 
needs  to  address  is  that  of  financial  aid  for  transfer 
students.  The  entire  financial  aid  issue  became  one 
of  the  greatest  obstacles  in  Melissa's  path  on  her 
road  to  success.  "Because  of  my  financial  situation, 
1 didn't  really  know  if  1 would  be  able  to  come  back 
junior  year.  It  all  became  a constant  battle." 
Melissa  advises  underclassmen  to  always  work  hard . 
"Set  goals  for  yourself..  You  can  make  them  happen 
if  you  work  hard  enough.  With  hard  work,  you  can 
succeed.  1 was  an  average  student  in  high  school, 
but  when  I came  here,  I wanted  to  be  better  than 
av^erage." 

Melissa  would  like  to  thank  all  of  her  teachers  for 
their  guidance  and  time.  "All  of  my  teachers  said 
they  were  there  to  help,  and  they  meant  it.  On 
various  occasions,  I took  them  up  on  their  offers  for 
assistance  and  I learneci  a great  deal."  Of  course,  she 
also  thanks  her  roommates  and  her  friends  for  their 
support.  She  would  like  to  give  special  thanks  to  her 
family,  especially  her  parents  and  her  boyfriend. 
Next  year  at  this  time,  Melissa  hopes  to  be  in  a job 
working  with  children,  while  studying  Psychology 
at  the  graduate  lev^el.  ,,  , „

Class  Gift 
Dedication 

With  the  hope  of  leaving  a positive  impression  upon  Merrimack 
College,  the  Class  of  1992  is  proud  to  contribute  a Victorian 
Courtyard  Clock  to  the  Merrimack  College  Community.  A dedi- 
cation ceremony  was  held  on  Tuesday,  May  5, 1992.  At  this  time, 
the  clock  was  unv'eiled. 

The  clock  has  a double  face,  measures  eleven  feet  tall  and  lights  up 
at  night.  It  was  manufactured  by  Verdin  Company  of  Cincinatti, 
Ohio,  the  oldest  clock  manufacturer  in  the  world.  The  clock 
stands  in  the  middle  of  Gildea  Plaza. 

The  class  hopes  that  the  clock  will  become  a symbol  for  all  current 
and  future  students  that  our  time  here  is  very  limited.  We  must 
take  advantage  of  our  time  at  Merrimack,  constantly  working  to 
improve  the  condition  of  our  community. 

Over  eighty  five  percent  of  the  class  contributed  funds  to  make  the 
clock  a reality.  Such  a high  percentage  shows  that  the  Class  of  1 992 
has  a great  deal  of  unity.  When  we  wanted  to  get  something  done, 
we  did  it  together.  Thanks  to  all  who  helped  with  this  project.

Senior  Week  activities  began  on  Wednesday,

Hotel  in  Danvers.  Many  seniors  took  advantage  of 
the  warm  weather  and  checked  in  early  to  the  hotel. 
Seniors  enjoyed  a special  VIP  reception  in  the  Laurel's 
Lounge  followed  by  an  elegant  dinner  in  the  Grand

as  we  realized;  "It's  the  end  of  the  world  as  we  know

The  Clambake  took  place  onFriday,  May  15  at  the  Cedardale  facility  in 
Groveland.  Around  the  grounds  students  enjoyed  games  of  volleyball, 
basketball,  and  miniature  golf,  while  quenching  their  thirst  with  refresh- 
ing frozen  drinks  and  satisfying  their  hunger  with  succulent  lobsters  and 
steamers.  Surprisingly,  some  students  were  even  brazen  enough  to  dive 
into  the  pool  on  the  sunny,  yet  cool  May  afternoon. 

Whether  students  were  on  the  buses  that  made  it  there  without  a

attended  had  a fabulous  time.

families  gathered  for  the  Baccalaureate  Dinner  Dance  at 
the  Boston  Parkl’laza  Hotel.  The  evening  was  extravagant.

have  been  the  theme  for  senior  week, 


1 11  t's  the  end  of  the  world  as  we  know  it  and  we  feel  fine"  may 

I 1 I ■■  but  graduation  would  mark  the  beginning  of  the  obstacles  and  good  fortune  yet  to  be  encountered. 

Graduation  took  place  on  a sunny  Sunday,  May  17, 1992.  Excitement  and  tears  filled  the  air  as  soon  to 
be  graduates  said  good  bye  and  toasted  their  college  years  to  champagne. 

The  procession  was  headed  by  Chief  Marshal,  Dr.  Ronald  Pike,  toward  the  Volpe  Complex.  Everyone  had  a smUe  on  their  face  and 
cameras  flashed  as  the  students  entered  the  decorated  ice  rink  filled  with  more  than  1,000  people.  Pomp  and  Circiimstance  was  played 
by  the  ba  nd  as  the  students  marched  down  the  aisle  toward  s their  seats . Sister  Eileen  began  the  ceremony  with  an  opening  prayer  followed 
by  Dayna  DTtria  who  sang  The  National  Anthem. 

The  Honorary  Degrees  were  then  presented  to  three  outstanding  individuals.  Joseph  A.  Graziano  of  Apple  Computer,  an  alumni  of 
Merrimack  received  a Doctor  of  Commercial  Science.  Jack  Williams  of  WBZ,  Channel  4 received  a Doctor  of  Humane  Letters.  He  was 
praised  and  recognized  for  his  service  to  the  Boston  community,  especially  his  role  in  the  development  of  Wednesday's  Child.  Ernest 
Boyer  also  received  a Doctor  of  Education  for  his  top  selling  book.  College.  At  the  conclusion  of  these  presentations,  the  beach  balls 
appeared.  The  most  important  concerns  in  our  minds  appeared  to  be  trying  to  keep  the  beach  balls  in  the  air  and  whether  or  not  the  Celtics 
would  win. 

Before  the  address  to  the  graduates,  Michael  Reynolds  sang  the  Merrimack  Alma  Mater.  Next,  Jack  Williams  approached  the 
microphone  and  opened  with  a quote  that  "1992  graduates  face  the  worst  job  market  ever."  However,  he  assured  the  men  and  women 
that  change  will  continue  and  we  should  achieve  our  goals.  He  also  told  the  graduates  that  there  is  a successful  formula  in  life  and  if  we 
concentrate  on  it,  we  will  overcome  obstacles  and  reach  our  goals.  First,  we  should  decide  what  we  really  want,  ask  ourselves  what  are 
my  dreams?  Then,  believe  in  ourself,  be  motivated  and  do  not  fear  failure.  Mr.  Williams  closed  with  a valuable  quote  form  George  Shaw, 
"^me  people  see  things  as  they  are  and  say  why.  1 dream  things  that  never  work  and  say  why  not." 

The  moment  everyone  was  waiting  for  was  finally  here...THE  DEGREES!!!  Students  walked  across  the  stage  with  looks  of 
accomplishment  and  relief.  "I  made  it!  1 have  a diploma  to  prove  it.!" 

Cheryl  Kristina  DiMatteo  then  gave  her  Valedictorian  speech  and  urged  the  students  to  make  a difference.  "We  cannot  fear  change. 
We  must  embrace  change  and  try  to  address  problems  such  as  racism." 

A few  more  awards  were  to  be  given  out  before  the  members  of  the  class  of  1992  would  become  alumni.  Dr.  Naylor  of  the  History 
department  received  the  Edward  G.  Roddy,  Jr.  Outstanding  Teacher  of  the  Year  Award,  and  a handful  of  seniors  received  awards  for 
outstanding  service  and  top  ranking  m the  different  departments. 

Looking  back,  the  time  spent  at  Merrimack  provided  many  friendships,  struggles  and  most  of  all  ,memories..

ill  lUily 


his  spring,  while  most  of  our  friends 
traveled  south  to  warmer  waters,  six- 
teen Merrimack  students,  along  with 
Professor  Cathy  Rich-Din  al,  traveled 
to  Italy  to  not  only  learn  about  foreign 
business  practices  and  customs,  but  to  also 
explore  the  wonders  of  Rome,  Florence,  Milan 
and  Venice. 

While  we  were  in  Italy,  the  Comparitive 
■Marketing  class  had  the  opportunity  to  meet 
with  Alitalia  Airlines,  11  Papiro  (giftware), 
and  Consortium  de  Prosciutto  Di  Parma  (Pro- 
sciutto). Our  interaction  with  these  compa- 
nies provided  us  with  an  inside  look  at  the 
difference  between  European  and  American 
practices  in  marketing. 

Our  trip  was  not  only  business,  but  also  a 
great  deal  of  fun!  In  Rome  we  had  the  chance 
to  visit  the  Trev  Fountain,  Piazza  Navona,  St. 

Peter's  Square,  The  Pantheon,  The  Spanish 
Steps,  and  The  Coliseum,  while  also  being 
able  to  enjoy  a great  deal  of  wonderful  shopping  and 
exquisite  dining.  In  Venice  we  explored  the  Grand  Canal 
anci  its  waterways.  WealsosawtheBridgeofSighs,as  well 
as  the  Island  of  San  Giorgio.  In  Milan  we  realized  that  the 
sights  were  endless  as  we  saw  the  Duomo  Cathedral, 
Piazza  della  Scala,  and  took  in  the  beauty  of  Leonardo  da 
Vinci's  painting  of  "The  Last  Supper." 

The  trip  is  definitely  something  we  will  never  forget. 
We  made  wonderful  friends,  explored  breathtaking  sights, 
and  created  an  increciible  memory.

SiSenv  ■ Members  t)f  the  Ci\'il  Engintvring  department.  'Jifght  [>.  Ronald  Pike  of  the 
Chemistry  department  leads  the  Class  of  1^2  in  their  walk  to  Volpe  Complex. 


Icame  to  .N/IeTrinvick  College  in  1%5.  1 was  hired  asChairman  of 
the  Chemistry  Department. 

At  first,  a decided  lack  of  up-to-date  equipment,  especially  in  the 
iiistnimentation-analytical  area.  Tlie  department  was  truly  20 
years  behind  the  times.  It  has  been  a continuous  struggle  to 
maintain  a mcxlem,  di\'erse  instrumental  program.  Ttxiay  we 
have  excellent  facilities  and  1 would  rate  our  position  as  tops 
among  undergraduate  institutions  across  the  country  in  this 
area.  Unfortunately,  o\'er  the  years,  key  indi\rduaLs  in  the 
administration  l'ia\'e  not  had  the  \'ision  nor  the  understanding  to 
assist  the  department  m this  \'ital  area.  In  one  instance,  u'e  were 
ad\rsed  not  to  submit  a grant  application  since  we  might  not  get 
the  award!!  (We  did  on  both  counts!)  In  another  instance,  we 
were  told  bluntly,  that  since  we  had  obtained  two  NSF  matching 
grants  the  year  before  we  were  ad  vised  not  to  write  another  grant 
request  because,  if  obtained,  it  wouldn't  be  matched  by  the 
College.  This  type  of  pliilosophy  of  "tliinking  small"  has  been 
one  of  the  major  obstacles  placed  in  our  path  o\'er  the  years. 
Truthfully,  in  this  area  I'v'e  surmounted  what  personal  obstacles 
have  been  placed  in  my  path.  Being  an  eternal  optimist,  1 tend  not 
to  dwell  on  the  difficult  blows  life  has  dealt  me,  but  rather  focus 
on  solutions  with  a positix^e  hope  for  the  future.  .Mv  teacliing 
career  has  been  an  extremely  rew'arding,  fulfilling  experience.  Of 
course,  to  see  the  development  of  tlie  microscale  concept  of 
laboratory  instruction  take  hold  and  grow  bevond  our  wildest 
dreams  is  one  of  the  many  highlights  I'v'e  experienced. 

Major — to  learn  to  manage  time  effectiv’ely  and  set  priorities.  To 
realize  these  four  spent  at  Merrimack  are  the  ones  tliat  can  make 
the  future  a rewarding  and  fulfilling  experience.  Top  prioritv'  is 
study,  study,  and  more  study  with  ahvays  attention  to  detail. 
Certainlv,  many  hav’e  to  w'ork,  but  if  so,  a used  car  and  p>eanut 
butter  sandwiches  along  with  sacrifice  need  to  be  tlie  bvword. 
Also,  a major  obstacle  for  many  students  is  to  learn  not  to  gi\’e  up 
when  the  road  is  uphill  and  difficult.  Two  words  suffice: 
perseverance  and  diligence.  If  practiced,  anvtliing  is  possible. 
Unfortunately,  many  students  have  not  developed  this  attribute.

I canie  to  Merrimack  directly  from  graduate  school  GJ.  of  Notre 
Dame)  in  1 975  and  have  taught  here  e\'er  since.  1 ha\'e 
also  taught  at  Bradford  College  in  Bradford,  .MA  as  ■ 
w'ell  as  the  Uni\'ersit\'  of  Peradeniya  in  Kandy,  Sri 
Laiika  and  theUni\’ersit\' of  Hawaii,  thebranch  campus 
at  Hilo,  Hawaii.  Teacliing  at  these  different  schools 
has  given  me  some  persjaective  on  learning  at 
Merrimack. 

1 find  the  students  at  Merrimack  to  be  (on  the  whole 
and  with  many  qualifications)  serious  about  getting 
their  degree.  Tlieir  attitude  is  often  one  of  dogged 
determination  - a steady  sense  of  purpose  and  a fear  of 
failure  motix'ates  them  to  keep  plugging  until  all  the 
chores  witliinchoresarecompleted  and  all  thehurdles  • 
surmounted . Tliere  are  students  like  this  e\  ery\vhere 
1 have  taught  - Merrimack  is  not  unique  in  tliis  \N’ay. 
But  what  is  often  inissing  here  which  1 have  seen  to  be 
more  e\ident  at  other  schools  is  a sense  of  joy  about  the 
process  of  education  itself.  The  delight  tliat  can  come  j 
when  there  is  a sense  of  personal  limitation  melting  :| 
down torev'eala \'astnewhorizon,acertain intoxication  i 
of  spirit  - that  often  seems  to  be  missing.  Education ' 
requires  intensive  work  if  it  is  to  be  culti\’ated  well,  of 
course,  but  if  tliere  is  no  sense  of  a higher  unifying  purpose,  then  , 
nothing  is  left  but  leaden  drudgerv.  Education  is  not  merely  a > 
preparation  for  life,  it  is  life  witli  its  deeper  meanings  exposed  for 
those  who  would  kxik.  Insights  and  clear  \Tsion  lead  to  wisdom; 
wisdom  leads  to  mercv  and  compassion  w'hich  in  turn  lead  to 
inspired,  sensitive  acrion. 

May  all  students  e\’erywhere  be  happy!

I came  to  Merrimack  in  Fall  1987  with  the  near  term  gcwl  of 
increasing  the  number  of  Infonruition  Systems  elc‘cti\'es  offercti  bv 
the  Management  Department  and  the  longer  term  goal  of  creating 
an  InformationSystemsconcentration  within  the  Business  Division. 
The  greatest  obstacle  has  bcvn  the  huge  cost  of  computer  hardware 
w’henenvlsionc'd  in  temrsof  multiplebbsand  faculty  office  machines. 
We  have  a new'  computer  lab  in  O'Reilly  this  fall  which  is  used  bv  * 
the  Businc'ss,  Engineering,  and  Computer  Science  classes  although 
it  is  open  to  all  students.  1 hope  that  a second  CX3S  based  lab  will  be  ' 
available  by  next  year.  In  my  teacliing  career  the  greatest  obstacle  j 
hasbcvn  my  reluctance  to  turn  my  attention  from  teacliingactivities,  j 
such  as  exp)erimenting  with  new  methcxis,  student  projects,  course  ^ 
dc'sign,and  leamingnew'softwaretowardsresearchingand  writing  , 
for  publication.  1 w’as  draw'll  to  Merrimack  because  of  its  well- 
justified  reputation  as  a teaching-oriented  school. 

All  college  students  face  a myriad  of  obstacles  in  the  path  of  their ' 
education.  Oneobstacle  is  failing  to  take  the  Merrimack  educational 
experience  seriously  enough.  1 do  sometimes  observ'e 
that  students  do  themselves  a disservice  w'hen  they 
allow  their  jobs  to  take  prioritv'  ov'er  their  academic 
activities.  You  can  only  learn  from  a course  in  i 
proportion  to  your  individual  effort  and  participation  > 
in  the  activities  of  the  course.

I came  to  Merrimack  College  in  1985.  The  most 
diffiailt  obstacle  I faced  was  contending  with  the 
tenure  process.  Many  demands  were  made  wliich 
diverted  much  time  and  energy  from  my  teaching 
duties.  To  balance  tliis  teiision  rec|uired  difficult 
decisions  with  their  many  trade-ohs.  My  main 
objecti\'e  was  to  have  the  majority  of  those  trade-offs 
favor  the  classroom,  rmnotsureifisucceeded.  Other 
obstacles  include  acceptance  in  the  Merriniack 
connnunity,  which  involved  overcoming  indmdual 
prejudices  and  group  stereotypes.  This  process,  I 
might  add,  contiiuies. 

Oiie  major  obstacle  1 have  faced  in  my  career  is 
leaniing  to  work  wdth  rather  than  against  myself. 
Each  dme  a barrier  was  encountered,  1 found  it  to  be 
nothing  more  than  my  attitude  toward  that  barrier 
that  created  the  real  problem.  Tlie  solution  always 
began  with  me. 

Merrimack  students  face  many  challenges  in  their 
acadeniic  and  professional  careers.  Learning  to  handle 
large  amounts  of  informatton  and  make  effective 
decisioiis  are  some  of  the  major  challenges.  Others 
include  becoming  independent  arid  critical  tliinkers 
and  competent  problem-solvers.  These  skills,  iri  order  to  be 
developed,  require  hard  work,  diligence,  and  a fierce  determination 
to  succeed.  It's  a life  long  challenge  that  never  ends.

Sports 


I 


Cross  Country 


Jlains,  sprains,  blood,  sweat  and  tears  are  all  part  of  Cross 
Country.  Overshadowed  by  the  popularity  of  other  sports  at 
Merrimack,  many  students  are  unaware  of  its  existence.  What  it 
lacks  in  popularity  it  makes  up  for  in  difficulty.  Three  out  of  the 
five  weekdays  the  team  would  run  distances  totaling  thirty  five 
miles.  The  other  two  weekdays  were  left  for  speed  work,  which 
consisted  of  hill  work  and  running  repetitive  timed  half  and  full 
miles  as  fast  as  possible.  Saturday  was  race  day  (ugh),  between 
three  and  five  miles  of  rough  hilly  terrain  in  some  of  the  worst 
weather  you  could  imagine. 

Why  would  someone  participate  in  such  a sport,  you  may  ask? 
The  challenge  of  getting  into  shape,  improving  your  race  times 
and  yes,  the  lure  of  winning  a trophy  are  all  valid  reasons.  This  is 
why  Cross  country  is  depicted  as  an  individual  sport.  On  the 
contrary,  each  person  ran  hard  for  the  team.  We  shared  the 
sadness  when  we  lost  a crucial  teammate  to  a broken  leg  and 
happiness  when  each  of  us  finished  the  last  race.  Our  goal  this 
year  was  to  build  a team.  We  accomplished  that,  albeit  with  a 
losing  record.  The  team  looks  forward  to  next  year,  although  we 
will  sorely  miss  seniors  Phil  Belissimo  and  Bob  Macleish,  who 
have  been  dedicated  team  members  for  the  past  three  years.

TThiiigs  Gin  Duly  get  better  tor  the  Merrimack 
College  C'lolt  team.  Of  the  ten  players  on  this  year's 
team,  six  were  freshmen.  Leading  the  pack  was  Fric 
Mcl’hail,  who  was  the  low  shooter  in  five  of 
Merrimack's  matches.  1 lis  scores  ranged  from  a 74 
against  Boston  University  to  an  83  against  Lowell. 
The  team  finished  with  an  overall  record  of  4-4.  The 
four  victories  were  at  Boston  University,  Babson, 
Worcester  Tech  and  A.l.C.  In  the  victorious  matches, 
Eric  McPhail  had  the  lowest  score  against  Boston 
University  and  Babson,  and  senior  JP  Guerin  scored 
lowest  against  Worcester  Tech  and  A.l.C. 

With  such  a young  squad,  the  golf  team  has  the 
potential  to  be  a contender  in  the  NE-10  Conference 
within  a few  seasons.

ILhe  1991  Men’s  Soccer  team  got  off  to  a strong  start  at  the  UNH 
tournament.  Merrimack  tied  Providence  College  1-1 . They  also  tied 
Division  I UNH. 

The  team  finished  with  an  overall  record  of  9-7-3.  They  “couldn’t  get 
the  big  game,”  with  the  exception  of  Stonehill.  Goaltender  Kevin 
Kirkpatrick  stopped  a sure  goal  single  handedly  to  keep  the  game 
scoreless.  Late  in  double  overtime,  Justin  Cook  scored  off  of  Eric 
Lusignan’s  pass  to  cinch  the  win  for  Merrimack.  It  was  a great  win  for 
the  Warriors  as  Stonehill  went  on  to  win  the  NE-10  Conference 
Championship. 

An  obstacle  faced  by  the  1 99 1 Soccer  team  was  the  lack  of  cooperation 
and  support  from  the  administration.  The  field  was  not  cut,  nor  the 
equipment  repaired.  They  promised  the  team  a scoreboard,  but 
never  delivered.  On  the  list  of  sports  priorities,  it  appears  that  soccer 
is  low  on  the  administration’s  list. 

The  team  is  losing  five  seniors  this  year  - defensemen  Robby 
Sciaudone,  George  Boukouvalas,  Tony  Cracchiolo,  Jim  Kennedy 
and  goaltender  Scott  Metzger.  The  future  of  Merrimack  Soccer  looks 
promising,  however,  as  this  year’s  squad  had  50%  of  the  players  on 
the  roster.

iihe  Merrimack  Women's  Soccer  team  traveled  on  a windy 
path  in  the  fall  of  '91 , falling  steps  short  of  capturing  the  Northeast- 
10  title.  Springfield  College  upset  the  Lady  Warriors  3-1  to  end 
the  team's  five  year  dynasty  of  championships.  "When  you're 
the  fastest  gun  in  the  west,  everyone  is  out  to  beat  you.  Most 
teams  play  their  best  games  against  us  and  there  is  no  time  to 
slack,"  says  eighth  year  coach  Gabe  Mejail. 

After  losing  four  starting  players  from  last  year's  lineup,  the 
Lady  Warriors  were  forced  to  quickly  adjust  to  the  new  chemistry 
on  the  field.  They  did  just  that  and  started  the  season  by 
defeating  Division  I opponent  Holy  Cross  3-2  in  overtime. 
Freshman  Holly  Corduck  scored  her  first  collegiate  goal  to 
clinch  the  win  for  Merrimack. 

Early  heartbreaking  losses  to  Northeast-1 0 opponents  St.  Anselm 
and  Springfield,  however,  convinced  coach  Gabe  Mejail,  assistant 
coach  Tom  McHugh,  the  players  as  well  as  their  parents  and  fans 
that  this  season  was  going  to  be  a bumpy  ride  with  no  time  for 
rest.  "We  had  to  be  up  for  every  game  because  there  was  no  easy 
competition.  Every  game  was  important  and  required  110% 
from  every  player,"  stated  senior  Carol  Marquardt,  who,  along 
with  Pam  McBrien  and  Allison  Taylor,  served  as  team  captain. 
The  Warriors'  proudest  accomplishment  came  in  the  closing 
games  of  the  season  when  they  tied  and  then  broke  the  NE-10 
scoring  record  for  most  goals  in  a single  season.  The  team  scored 
sixty  goals,  surpassing  their  prior  record  of  fifty  six  goals. 
Senior  Janice  Vendetti  and  Sophomore  Allyson  King  shared 
time  in  net.  Vendetti  ended  her  career  with  a goals  against 
average  of  1.37  and  a .804  save  percentage.  King  closed  the 
season  with  a goals  against  average  of  1 .51  and  a save  percentage 
of  .809. 

Cathy  Nagorski  remained  the  Warriors'  leading  scorer  for  the 
second  season  with  twelve  goals  and  five  assists,  earning  1st 
team  All  new  England  as  well  as  NE-10  All  Star  status.  Junior 
Sarah  Boyd  ended  the  season  with  five  goals  and  ten  assists, 
making  the  All  New  England  2nd  team,  as  well  as  earning  NE- 
10  All  Star  status.  Junior  defender  Jen  Harrington  proved  to  be 
a strong  asset  as  she  was  recognized  with  All  New  England  and 
All  Conference  honors.  Senior  Captain  Carol  Marquardt  matched 
Boyd's  scoring  with  five  goals  and  ten  assists,  ending  her  career 
with  All  Conference,  All  New  England  and  Regional  All  American 
accolades. 

The  team  wishes  the  best  of  luck  to  graduating  seniors  Julie 
Dadmun,  Carol  Marquardt,  Pam  McBrien,  Jen  Palmer,  Jane 
Schmiedel,  Allison  Taylor  and  Janice  Vendetti.  The  Lady  Warriors 
also  look  ahead  to  next  season  which  will  be  led  by  captains 
Sarah  Boyd,  Jen  Harrington  and  Michele  Humphries,  to  recapture 
the  NE-10  title  and  continue  the  winning  tradition  of  Merrimack 
Women's  Soccer.

Jlhe  Merrimack  Women's  Tennis  team  started  off  the  1991  fall  season  under  the  coaching  of  Rick 
Edelman.  Coach  Edelman  has  headed  the  men's  team  for  the  past  years  and  was  appointed  as  the 
women's  coach  to  replace  former  coach  Sheryl  Allen,  who  retired  to  concentrate  on  her  full  time 
job.  The  women  regretted  losing  her  after  her  nine  years  of  service,  but  welcomed  the  360  degree 
turnaround  that  lay  ahead. 

Coach  Edelman  worked  the  girls  rigorously  in  the  pre-season,  with  the  philosophy  of  "if  you  want 
it,  go  out  and  get  it."  He  enforced  net  action  by  practice  drills  that  would  get  the  women  into  net, 
taking  charge  of  the  point  to  be  able  to  put  it  away.  It  was  a difficult  strategy  to  adapt  not  only  in 
doubles,  having  both  players  charge  the  net,  but  also  in  doubles,  moving  into  the  net  after  every 
serve,  or  early  in  the  point,  ready  for  the  cross  court  return.  Coach  Edelman  trained  the  women's 
and  men's  teams  together  during  pre-season  and  held  separate  practices  once  the  season  began. 
He  emphasized  drills  and  long  distance  runs  to  condition  the  women  during  the  season  while 
holding  challenge  matches  and  several  scrimmages  for  the  men.  Despite  the  rigorous  workouts. 
Coach  Edelman  tried  to  merge  the  teams  by  setting  up  a mixed  doubles  tournament  during  two 
practices  to  break  up  the  monotony. 

Coach  Edelman  realized  he  had  a year  of  rebuilding  after  losing  top  ranked  league  champion  Jen 
Hatem  and  her  partner  Miriam  Meyer,  who  transferred  to  Villanova  last  year.  He  remained 
optimistic  about  the  team's  potential,  however,  realizing  the  majority  of  the  team  was 
underclassmen. 

The  team's  captains  for  the  1991-92  season  were  senior  Heather  Goodwin  and  junior  Janine 
Munsill.  Both  were  appointed  to  a captains  peer  council  through  the  athletic  department  where 
they  spoke  both  within  the  college  community  and  in  area  schools  about  issues  facing  today's 
youth. 

Goodwin  held  the  #1  singles  position  this  season,  after  a one  year  leave  because  of  an  ankle  injury. 
This  injury  caused  another  leave  during  the  Eall  '91  season  after  she  fell  over  on  it  during  a match 
against  Bryant  College.  Realizing  her  importance,  she  worked  hard  to  recover  and  reappeared  in 
the  line  up  a week  later. 

Other  returning  varsity  players  were  sophomore  Lisa  Morey,  #2  singles,  Sheri  LaCourse,  #4 
singles  and  junior  Kristen  D'Eramo,  #5  singles.  Munsill  held  the  #6  singles  position. 

New  faces  for  the  squad  were  sophomore  Tricia  Moore,  freshwoman  Paula  Novell!  and  fresh  woman 
Kerrie  Axt,  all  of  whom  saw  some  varsity  action.  Also  playing  was  freshwoman  Lisa  "Capriati" 
Smith,  who  held  the  #3  singles  position. 

On  the  doubles  line-up,  the  standings  were:  Heather  Goodwin  and  Lisa  Smith  playing  #1,  Sheri 
LaCourse  and  Lisa  Morey  playing  #2  and  Kristen  D'Eramo  and  Janine  Munsill  at  #3,  followed  by 
exhibition  matches  which  did  not  count  in  conference  match  scoring. 

Sheri  LaCourse  was  named  October  Athlete  of  the  Month  as  a result  of  her  exceptional  record 
during  the  season  at  the  #5  position  and  her  achievement  as  a New  England  Championship 
finalist. 

Despite  not  making  the  NE-10  tournament  and  having  a tough  season,  the  team  considers  this  year 
as  a transition,  both  because  of  a new  coach  and  the  number  of  underclassmen  on  the  team.  It  was 
a season  of  rebuilding,  trying  to  live  up  to  the  Merrimack  legend  the  team  has  been  in  past  years, 
being  second  only  to  Springfield  last  year.  There  is  a great  deal  of  potential  among  the  women, 
and  with  spring  training  and  work  over  the  summer,  the  Eall  '92  season  looks  very  promising.

Volleyball 


ILn  till.*  beginning,  we  Duly  had  seven  players.  None  of  us  knew  what  to  exp>ect  for 
the  upcoming  season  or  from  our  new  coach  Kick  Tidd.  Kick  was  demanding,  as  all  ; 

coaches  are,  along  with  experienced  and  intelligent.  At  first,  he  was  intimidating, 
but  as  the  season  progressed,  we  got  used  to  each  other.  The  veterans  realized  that  i 
the  improvements  we  had  made  were  because  of  our  knew  coach. 

Toward  mid  season,  we  added  another  member  to  our  squad.  Unfortunately,  we 
still  only  had  three  hitters  - an  offensiv'e  position  for  those  who  spike  or  hit  the  ball. 

This  limited  our  overall  play  but  considering  this,  we  did  well. 

One  day  during  practice  we  established  our  goals  for  the  season.  .Most  dealt  with  j 
limiting  the  amount  of  errors  per  match.  They  were  all  attainable  goals,  and  if  they  j 
needed  to  be  modified  in  any  way,  then  we  would  do  so.  At  mid  season,  we 
discussed  how  well  we  were  doing  at  attaining  our  goals.  We  also  established 
individual  goals  of  how  many  digs  (bumping  a spike)  or  kills  (spiking  the  ball  to  the 
ground)  we  should  average  a game.  Some,  like  serving  errors,  had  to  be  changed, 
while  others  stayed  the  same.  Throughout  the  season,  we  were  reminded  of  our 
goals  and  that  we  had  to  do  everything  in  our  power  to  achieve  them. 

One  particular  match  that  stands  out  was  against  Springfield . The  team  had  banded 

together  because  the  day  before  at  practice  we  let  out  all  of  our  frustrations  that  had  i 

mounted  throughout  the  season.  Our  goal  for  the  day  was  to  be  obnoxious  and 

celebrate  as  much  as  possible.  It  was  one  of  our  best  matches  even  though  we  lost.  ; 

Springfield  was  third  or  fourth  in  our  conference  and  had  won  the  N E-1 0 Conference 

Championship  the  previous  season. 

Although  we  were  always  reminded  of  our  goals,  we  did  not  always  abide  by  them. 

Coach  Tidd  always  told  us  it  was  imperative  to  reach  our  goals  so  that  we  could  be 
victorious.  Whenever  we  reached  our  goals,  we  had  a successful  match.  But  on  the 
other  hand,  when  we  neglected  our  goals,  we  fell  short. 

Our  overall  record  does  not  signify  the  success  of  this  year's  squad.  We  had  some  j 

good  times  and  some  bad,  but  just  because  we  lost  does  not  mean  we  did  not  always  |j 

play  well.  We  made  great  improvements  over  last  year's  team  and  next  year's  team  ^ 

promises  to  be  even  better.  J 

Losing  four  seniors  and  a coach  provided  many  hurdles  for  this  year's  squad  to  | 

jump.  Rick  was  always  there  to  guide  us  through  by  developing  goals  we  needed  I 

to  accomplish.  We  might  not  hav'e  made  it  by  every  hurdle,  but  we  did  the  best  we  I 

could  and  made  the  most  of  what  we  had. 


"At  first  he  was  in- 
timidating, but  as 
the  season  pro- 
gressed, we  got 
used  to  each  other. 
Those  of  us  who 
had  returned  real- 
ized that  the  im- 
provements we 
had  made  were  be- 
cause of  our  new 
coach." 


...  and  we  had 
some  bad."

Hockey 


t u'lis  ii  iDiigh  season  for  the  lWl-92  Warric»r  htK'key  team. 
l')ebilitating  injuries,  as  well  as  unfortunate  academic 
circumstances  to  some  of  the  team's  key  perk)rmers  were  more  i 
prevalent  than  wins  in  1 lockey  Hast,  as  Merrimack  struggled  to 
a disappointing  4-17-0  mark  in  league  play  and  only  finished  i 
13-20-0  overall. 

Luckily,  senior  net-minder  Steven  D'Amore  met  the  adversity 
head  on  and  turned  in  several  superlative  performances  to  help 
the  Warriors  snatch  sudden  victory  from  the  jaws  of  certain  ' 
defeat.  D'Amore  appeared  in  25  games  and  posted  a very 
respectable  record  of  10-13.  In  those  contests,  he  had  a save 
percentage  of  .868  and  made  592  stops.  1 le  was  the  goalie  when 
Merrimack  defeated  Boston  College,  3-1,  Boston  University,  5- 
4,  and  Northeastern,  2-0. 

Up  front,  junior  forward  Daniel  Gravelle  was  the  top  scorer,  as 
he  netted  15  goals  and  added  26  assists  . Other  stars  included 
' senior  Agostino  Casale,  who  scored  30  points.  Teal  Fowler,  , 
who  chipped  in  with  16  goals  and  11  assists,  and  senior  Rob 
Kelley,  who  supplied  much  of  the  grunt  work  in  the  corners  j 
and  in  front  of  the  other  teams'  goaltenders. 

It  was  through  each  of  the  player's  hard  work  every  day  that 
helped  the  team  to  be  win  the  first  I lockey  East  Team  i 
Sportsmanship  Award,  presented  by  Commissioner  Stu  Haskell  j 
at  the  Boston  Garden  on  March  12.  j 

Although  at  times  it  can  be  difficult  to  balance  a full  time 
schedule  and  play  a Division  I sport,  the  team  has  fared  well, 
with  four  players  having  been  named  to  the  Hockey  East  All 
Academic  team  after  the  past  three  seasons.

Baseball 


hrow  tom'fluT  a bunch  of  relatively  ytHing  guys 
who  love  the  game  ot  baseball  and  what  will  you  get? 
No  one  has  ever  known  what  to  expect  from  the  youth 
that  have  comprised  the  Merrimack  baseball  team  in 
the  past  seasons,  and  this  year  was  yet  another  year  of 
mixed  expectations.  Fortunately,  despite  the  youth 
and  the  usual  inexperience  that  accompanies  it,  these 
Warriors  were  determined  to  play  the  game  to  the  best 
of  their  ability.  Although  their  rect)rd  was  not  flawless, 
on  the  field  one  thing  was  obvious — these  men  had  a 
love  of  the  sport  which  could  not  be  equaled.  These 
assets,  backed  by  strong  leadership  by  the  v'eterans, 
the  Merrimack  baseball  team  showed  that  age  is  no 
obstacle  and  spirit  cannot  be  feigned. 

In  the  heat  of  Ft.  Pierce,  Florida,  the  boys  prov'ed  early 
on  that  they  had  come  to  play.  The  Warrior  squad 
came  out  swinging.  They  backed  their  offensive  attack 
with  an  equally  stalwart  defense.  Despite  the  expected 
challenges  from  the  perennial  powers  in  the  Northeast- 
10  Conference,  the  Warriors  stood  their  ground  and 
forced  the  competitors  to  keep  them  in  mind  as  a 
potential  threat. 

The  battle  became  somewhat  more  intense  for  the  team 
at  the  end  of  the  long  season,  yet,  they  remained 
competitiv'e  through  it  all.  Finishing  about  .500  for  the 
year,  the  Warriors  have  not  lost  the  one  element  which 
driv'es  them  through  each  game  — spirit. 

Looking  ahead,  next  season  should  be  equally  bright. 
After  some  eff  ective  recruiting,  the  squad  will  be  joined 
by  several  newcomers  who  will  become  part  of  the 
baseball  tribe  due  to  their  immeasurable  talent  and 
spirit.

hi-  l.urit-»st>  ti-am  i-nti-n-d  thi-  1^2  -.i-tisDn  with  d dn-am.  The 
only  Division  III  team  at  Merrimack,  the  lacrosse  team  learni-d  that 
their  dream  ot  entering  Division  II  was  not  to  he  realized. 

In)iirv  and  ineligibility  next  plagued  the  team.  IX-spite  these-  ob- 
stacli-s,  the  Warriors,  led  by  Coach  Paul  Murphy,  Assistant  Coach 
bill  Bred m and  Captains  John  Cassedy,  Pete  Davis,  Hd  DyBruynand 
Ron  Pollina,  persevered.  i 

Paced  with  a lack  ot  funding  from  the  schiHil,  the  players  financed 
their  trip  to  California  during  spring  break.  I lere  the  Warriors  saw 
their  record  of  ten  straight  victoric-s,  the  bi-sf  of  any  team  in  New 

England,  fall  in  their  opening  game  against  Roger  Williams.  | 

During  the  season  the  team  had  a difficult  time  getting  the  offense  1 

going,  as  well  as  staying  out  of  the  penalty  box.  Senior  Pete  Davis  li-d  [ 

the  Warriors  in  scoring  with  points.  Junior  goalie  Pat  Richard,  in  his 

first  year  in  net  in  varsity  play,  anchored  the  veteran  defense.  j 

Merrimack  ended  their  season  with  a 3-10  record.  The  team  is  losing  ' 

seven  seniors  this  year  - John  Cassedy,  Pete  Davis,  Scott  Eltenhofer, 

Tom  .MacDonald,  Ron  Pollina,  John  Wait  and  Jamie  Winter.  The 
W'arrior  lacrosse  team  enters  the  1993  season  with  a solid  core  of 
young  talent  and  a message  - "payback’s  a bitch."

Softball 


list  like  iiii  tiudiciK'c*  viewing  o sequel  of  a breathtakingly 
original  movie,  everyone  has  expectations  the  second  time 
around.  I'or  the  Merrimack  softball  team,  nothing  differed. 

I he  Lady  Warriors  were  no  longer  the  underdog  after  the  IWl 
softball  season.  After  winning  the  Nt)rtheast-l{)  Conference 
title,  and  earning  their  first  ever  NCAA  Division  II  Mid- 
Atlantic  Regional  the  group  proved  just  what  we  were  capable 
of  achieving.  In  the  season,  our  w'ork  was  definitely  cut 
out  for  ourselves.  It  was  time  to  prove  that  last  year's 
accomplishments  were  no  stroke  of  luck,  and  our  young,  but 
talented  team  was  ready,  willing  and  able  to  face  thechallenges. 
Sometimes,  a team  can  slide  into  that  top  ranked  position 
because  it  goes  unnoticed  by  the  competition.  It  is  simply  not 
expected  to  do  that  well..  In  the  past,  this  seemed  the  case  for 
the  Lady  Wa  rriors.  But,  this  year  things  changed  .All  opponents 
had  their  eyes  focused  upon  the  talent  that  comprised  the 
Merrimack  squad.  They  could  study  all  they  wanted,  psych  up 
and  prepare,  but  there  was  no  stopping  the  invincible  Warriors. 
Led  by  a strong  pitching  staff,  backed  by  a seemingly 
impenetrable  defense,  Merrimack  shut  down  opponents,  only 
to  crush  them  by  an  equally  forceful  offense. 

Playing  together  as  a unit,  the  Lady  Warriors  won  the  Notheast- 
10  Conference  title,  finishing  19-1  in  the  conference,  and  going 
on  to  win  the  Northeast-10  playoffs.  The  Merrimack  attack  w'as 
on  a two  year  streak.  Unfortunately,  destiny  played  a large  role 
in  the  team's  ultimate  progress,  as  we  were  not  allowed  to 
continue  onward  to  the  NCAA  Regionals. 

The  ladies  did  everything  in  our  power  to  go  as  far  as  we 
could — together  we  fought,  together  we  won.  Although  the 
rejection  from  the  NCAA  Regionals  was  somewhat 
disheartening,  nothing  could  take  away  the  pride  and  spirit  of 
this  team.  Together  we  dealt  with  all  obstacles  and 
circumstances,  always  striving  to  our  ultimate  goal  — victory.

Athletes  of 


Sherri  LaCourse  - Women's  Tennis 

Will)  would  buliovc  thill  Slicri  l.iiCourse  never  had  a tormal  tennis  lesson-  and  that  tennis  was  only 
a recreational  hobby  until  her  sophomore  year  in  high  school?  Anyone  who  has  sc*en  Sheri  play 
probably  wouldn't! 

As  an  athlete,  Sheri  has  been  seriously  influenced  by  her  brother.  "1  played  my  best  matches  with 
him.  I wanted  to  be  as  good  as  him.  I le's  always  been  my  favorite  opponent,  but  I never  beat  him 
until  recently.  1 le  pushed  me  to  my  fullest  potential-  he  was  always  a challenge." 

Sheri  has  no  problem  getting  psyched  up  for  her  matches.  "1  think  about  past  matches,  mistakes 
made,  and  what  I need  to  do  to  avoid  making  the  mistakes  again." 

Sheri  is  an  undeclared  business  major  with  a minor  in  F'ine  Arts.  Someday,  she  would  like  to  coach 
a high  school  squad.  In  high  school,  Sheri  was  the  recipient  of  the  coach's  award,  a member  of  the 
National  1 lonor's  Society,  captain  of  the  woman's  soccer  team,  and  vice-president  of  the  senior 
class.  In  college,  she  has  been  a Dean's  List  student..  (Undoubtedly,  this  student  still  has  a verv 
bright  future  ahead  of  her.) 

Looking  ahead,  Sheri  believes  the  team  will  face  a year  of  rebuilding  in  the  next  season.  "There  are 
a lot  of  young  players,  but  the  coach  has  high  hopes-  because  of  the  youth,  the  team  looks  quite 
promising.  . Kristen  D'Eramo 

Sherri  LaCourse

another  fine  return. 


Eric  McPhail  - Golf 


A resident  of  Waltham,  Massachusetts,  Eric  McPhail  first  developed  his  interest  in  golf  when  he  worked 
at  a golf  course.  It's  been  nine  years  since  those  days  and  he  is  still  playing. 

Eric  thanks  his  parents  for  their  support  throughout  his  golf  career.  "They  got  me  started  by  taking  me  • 
to  lessons  and  playing  with  me  as  often  as  possible."  Eric  explained,  "My  father  has  always  been  my  ; 
favorite  competitor.  He  pushes  me  to  be  my  best."  ' 

Eric  is  a business  major  who  has  participated  in  intramural  hockey  during  his  days  at  Merrimack.  One 
of  his  greatest  achievements  came  when  he  was  crowned  the  Mass  State  junior  Champion.  He  is  not  sure  | 
at  what  level,  yet  he  is  sure  that  he  will  continue  to  play  golf  after  college. 

Eric  evaluates  the  team's  performance  this  season,  "With  a third  place  finish  at  Bowdoin  the  team  started  i 
out  well,  yet  dropped  at  the  end,  with  the  5th  place  finish  at  the  Northeast  10."  He  continues  with  the  i 
prospects  for  the  upcoming  year,  "Although  Senior  Captain  j.P.  Guerin  will  be  graduating,  the  team  isn 
still  young  and  has  a lot  of  talent.  Next  year's  leader.  Bob  Annese  will  help  the  team  with  his  length."  jj 


Congratulations  to  all  the  students  named  Athlete  of  the 
Month.  The  Merrimackan  staff  apologizes  to  those  students 
we  were  unable  to  interview  and  spotlight. 


Dan  Collins  - Men's  Soccer  ' j 

Dan  Collins  overcame  the  primary  obstacle  between  himself  and  the  pursuit  of  athletic  excellence  on  the  j 
soccer  field-  his  size.  "A  lot  of  people  told  me  I couldn't  compete  seriously..!  think  it's  safe  to  say  my  speed 
and  agility  offset  a major  part  of  the  size  problem." 

Dan  began  playing  soccer  at  the  age  of  6.  Like  many  other  players,  the  majority  of  his  learning  experience 
in  the  early  years  came  from  a strong  youth  soccer  league.  In  addition  to  soccer,  Dan  was  also  actively 
inv'olved  in  baseball.  As  Dan  explained  it,  "Istuck  with  soccer.. I just  loved  the  sport."  During  high  school, 
he  was  named  to  his  league's  all-star  team  twice  and  was  captain  of  his  squad  senior  year.  T wo  of  the  most 
influential  individuals  in  Dan's  athletic  career  were  his  father  and  his  brother.  "My  father  used  to  coach 
and  my  older  brother  played.  I saw  my  brother  play  and  felt  I could  do  just  as  well." 

No  different  than  many  other  athletes,  before  a match,  Dan  listens  to  loud  music  to  get  psyched  up.  It 
is  never  usually  a problem  though.  "College  is  so  competitive  — the  level  of  play  gets  the  adrenaline 
flowing."  Dan  sites  Stonehill  as  one  of  his  favorite  rivals.  "They  are  just  one  of  our  long-term  rivals.,  they  { 
get  really  cocky..  I ESPECIALLY  lov'ed  beating  them  in  double  overtime  this  year." 

Two  groups  of  athletes  that  Dan  admires  are  the  professional  soccer  players  and  the  World  Cup  players. 
Dan  is  a management  major  who  has  also  participated  in  the  College's  intramural  program  in  both 
Basketball  and  Indoor  Soccer.  Looking  aheaci  to  what  the  next  season  should  hold  for  the  Warriors  Dan 
explains,  "There  were  fifteen  freshmen  on  the  team  this  year.  We  were  young  and  it  was  a rebuilding  year. 
Although  we  lose  five  or  six  seniors,  I think  we  will  fare  quite  well  in  the  92  season."

Carol  Marquardt  - Women's  Soccer 

Thirteen  years  ago,  Carol  Marquardt  followed  in  her 
brothers'  footsteps  and  decided  to  play  soccer.  Before  a 
game,  she  likes  to  listen  to  some  music  to  get  psyched  up 
and  ready  to  play.  In  reality  though,  she  just  lov'es  all  the 
aspects  of  the  sport,  so  this  is  not  a difficult  feat  to  accomplish. 

"It  is  a great  feeling  to  play  together  with  a team.  It's  a lot  of  fun  to  be  together.  Everyone  wins  together." 
Carol  majored  in  Marketing  at  Merrimack,  graduating  with  a degree  in  Business  Administration.  If  she 
is  not  successful  in  obtaining  an  employment  position  within  a reasonable  amount  of  time,  she  may  try 
out  for  the  national  team.  "I  truly  admire  the  women  on  the  national  team.  They  don't  get  much 
recognition...  They  play  just  because  they  love  the  sport." 

One  of  the  greatest  influences  in  Carol's  athletic  career  has  been  coach  Gabe  Mejail.  "He  is  not  like  a coach.. 
He  brings  himself  down  to  the  team  level.,  and  he  is  more  like  our  equal."  While  at  Merrimack,  under 
coach  Mejail's  wing,  Carol  has  received  various  honors.  The  impressive  list  includes:  Most  Valuable 
Player,  All  New  England,  and  All  Northeast  10. 

Reflecting  on  the  season,  Carol  explains,  "This  year  was  the  worst  year  record  wise...  but,  we  played  our 
best.  The  competing  teams  were  really  tough.  Upcoming  years,"  she  adds,  "will  depend  upon  the  level 
of  recruits  the  coaches  are  able  to  bring  in."

Cathy  Nagorski  - Women's  Soccer 

The  Merrimack  Soccer  tans  should  thank  tlie  soccer  coach  at  Shrewsbury  High  School  tor  the  excellent  job  that  was  done 
preparing  C athy  Nagorski  t(»r  collegiate  play.  During  her  years  at  Shrewsbury,  Nagorski  made  the  District  All-Star  team  thrcn? 
times.  Additionally,  with  hopes  of  enhancing  her  skills,  Nagorski  played  in  Europe  and  attended  an  Olympic  Development 
camp.  It  one  considers  her  accolades  at  Merrimack,  it  is  evident  that  her  hard  work  and  training  paid  off.  Nagorski  has  been 
named  "Rookie  of  the  Year,"  been  named  to  the  Northeast-IO-  All  Star  team,  and  recently  has  been  named  to  the  All-New 
England  team. 

Although  Cathv  began  playing  soccer  at  a rather  late  age,  1 1,  she  quickly  developed  a deep  interest  in  the  sport.  "The  excitement 
and  competition  of  the  game  was  a natural  high- just  scoring  and  winning.."  Cathy  worked  hard  to  dev’elop  her  talent,  "I  played 
whenever  and  wherever  I could-  even  in  the  backyard  and  cellar  with  my  brother."  Oie  of  the  most  significant  influences  in 
her  athletic  career  has  been  her  parents.  "They  have  always  been  willing  to  give  their  time  to  make  me  a better  player — i.e. 
driving  me  to  games,  my  father  taking  classes  on  the  sport,  and  my  father  coaching..  Most  importantly,  my  father  would  always 
share  his  new  findings  with  me.  I was  never  really  pushed,  but  allowed  to  make  the  decisions." 

To  get  mentally  prepared  for  a game,  Cathy  plays  music  really  loud.  "I  sit  and  visually  imagine  the  game,  preparing  mentally 
the  various  situations  in  the  game  with  Merrimack  dominating  in  every  situation.  If  something  dc^esn't  happen  right  away,  it 
will  later."  Cathy  continued  by  answering  the  question-who  is  your  favorite  opponent.  "My  favorite  opponent  is  any  team  that 
gives  us  a challenge-  an  even  match  with  tougher  level  teams." 

Cathy  is  a psychology  major.  She  has  done  quite  a bit  of  coaching,  has  worked  at  soccer  camp,  and  loves  coaching  the  sport, 
as  much  as  playing.  Like  the  rest  of  her  teammates,  she  was  quite  disappointed  when  the  team  was  knocked  out  in  the  semi- 
finals. However,  she  does  believe  that  a great  deal  of  dedicated  players  are  moving  up,  and,  as  a lot  of  freshmen  put  in  a lot 
this  season,  the  future  should  bring  success  for  the  Lady  Warriors.

Steve  Curran  looks  to  solidify  that  83.3%  free  throw 
shooting  stat. 


Steve  Curran  - Men's  Basketball 

Like  so  many  of  the  other  athletes,  Steve  Curran  does  not  have  a problem 
getting  psyched  up  for  the  game.  "I  just  think  of  how  fortunate  1 am  to  be  able 
to  contribute.  1 do  try  to  play  for  someone  or  dedicate  the  game  to  someone. 
Doing  that  does  help  me  get  more  into  the  game."  Based  upon  his  season's 
statistics,  Curran  definitely  didn't  have  a problem  getting  psyched  for  the 
game.  He  led  the  team  in  points,  averaging  21.2  per  game,  and  in  rebounds, 
with  a total  of  138  for  the  season.  Undoubtedly,  these  impressive  stats  are 
somewhat  a result  of  one  of  his  "favorite  opponents."  "My  favorite  opponent 
is  myself.  I constantly  try  to  improve. .to  do  things  a little  bit  better." 

The  greatest  influence  in  Steve's  athletic  career  has  been  his  family.  "My 
parents  have  always  been  there  with  tremendous  support."  Additionally, 
Steve  continued,  "My  brother  and  1 hav^e  always  been  competitive  against 
each  other,  .but  never  in  an  unhealthy  sense."  Steve  has  been  actively 
involved  in  the  sport  for  twelve  years.  "There  was  a good  youth  league  in 
Chelmsford..  A lot  of  my  friends  played,  so  I decided  to."  He  has  always 
liked  the  idea  of  being  part  of  a team  with  so  many  different  backgrounds 
that  comes  together  in  the  pursuit  of  one  common  goal.  Of  course,  he  also 
has  enjoyed  the  recognition  that  accompanies  the  hard  work  and 
perserverence. 

Steve  has  been  recognized  in  Who's  Who  in  America's  College's  and 
Universities.  He  has  also  been  named  to  the  1 st  team  All-Conference,  as  well 
as  the  2nd  team  District  1 All-American.  He  is  an  International  Business 
major  who  has  spent  some  of  his  spare  time  refereeing  intramurals.  Looking 
into  the  future,  he  would  like  to  continue  to  play  basketball  and  perhaps 
coach  his  own  team. 

Looking  back  at  his  career  at  Merrimack,  "Winning  the  NE-10  had  to  be  the 
greatest  part..and  of  course  making  it  back  to  the  NCAA  Regionals." 

Stev'e  wants  to  remind  the  team  members  who  will  be  playing  in  the  next 
season  what  Coach  Hamel  always  says...  "Things  aren't  always  as  bad  as 
they  seem. .or,  as  good  as  they  seem."

Karen  Max  - Women's  Basketball 


This  was  Karen's  first  time  as  Athlete  of  the  Month.  Karen  is  a very  humble  individual. 
She  was  surprised  and  honored  when  she  heard  the  news.  She  displayed  her  modesty 
when  she  explained  that  there  is  always  room  for  improvement  in  her  game.  She 
continued  to  say,  "If  you  are  satisfied  with  your  effort  and  do  not  think  you  can  improve 
upon  it,  you  are  selling  yourself  short.  When  you  are  satisfied  with  yourself,  you  are  at 
your  peak  awaiting  a decline." 

Karen  began  her  basketball  career  in  the  fourth  grade.  She  was  a center  throughout  high 
school  because  of  her  height,  but  at  Merrimack  she  is  a forward.  She  is  self-driven.  She 
wants  to  win  to  satisfy  herself.  Instead  of  listening  to  one  particular  tape,  or  goofing 
around  with  her  teammates,  Karen  listens  to  herself  to  get  psyched  up  for  her  games.  "1 
go  into  myself  and  get  my  energy  from  up  there.  I am  the  only  person  that  can  get  me 
psyched  up." 

These  past  two  years  Karen  has  not  been  satisfied  with  her  performance  on  the  court.  She 
wants  to  utilize  the  two  years  she  has  left  to  steadily  improve  her  game.  Additionally, 
she  would  like  to  see  the  squad  beat  Bentley  College.  The  game  against  Bentley  is  one 
of  Karen's  favorite  games.  "We  have  nothing  to  lose.  We  are  always  the  underdog.  If 
we  lose,  it  is  expected. ..but,  if  we  win,  it  is  the  upset  of  the  season." 

Looking  into  the  future,  Karen  would  like  to  play  in  a basketball  league  in  Europe  after 
graduation.  Although  people  tell  her  that  she  is  good  enough,  she  still  thinks  she  won't 
be  good  enough  to  play  there,  however.  "If  I am  not  good  enough  to  play  in  Europe,  then 
I will  have  to  get  a job."  Karen  is  an  accounting  major  from  New  Jersey.  She  would  like 
to  become  a CPA  in  Massachusetts. 

Karen  appreciates  the  support  her  parents  have  given  to  her  throughout  the  years.  "Even 
though  they  live  five  - six  hours  away,  my  parents  have  made  it  to  almost  all  of  my 
twenty  six  basketball  games.  It  always  helps  to  see  their  faces  in  the  stands." 


Fans  can  definitely  look  forward  to  Karen  Max's 
92-93  performance.  Karen  played  an  average  of 
twenty  four  minutes  per  game  and  finished  her 
season  with  136  points.

Gary  Duda  - Men's  Basketball 

Senior  Co-Captain  Ciary  Duda  is  definitely  a well-rounded  athlete.  I le  accepted  the  challenge  of  balancing  academics,  his 
social  life  and  basketball  and  managed  to  excel  both  on  the  court  and  in  the  classroom,  f fe  received  countless  awards  for  his 
achievements  both  on  and  off  the  court,  but  is  most  proud  of  being  named  to  the  GTE/College  Sports  Information  Directors 
of  America  Academic  All-America  team.  Duda  was  the  only  Division  II  player  in  the  Northeast  to  rtxreive  such  honors. 

I Considering  this  accomplishment,  it  should  come  as  no  surprise  that  one  athlete  whom  he  greatly  admires  is  Julius  Erving. 

I "I  just  like  the  way  he  carries  himself  on  and  off  the  court.  I lis  eloquence  teaches  young  athletes  a valuable  lesson — there's 
more  to  life  than  just  basketball."  When  Gary  leaves  Merrimack,  he  will  be  working  for  the  Coopers  and  Lybrand  accounting 
firm  in  their  Philadelphia  branch. 

Gary  began  his  basketball  career  at  the  age  of  5.  "My  family  was  very  sports  oriented.  I played  basketball  and  baseball  in  grade 
j school  and  high  school,  but  1 decided  in  college  it  would  have  been  tough  to  play  two  sports.  I really  liked  basketball,  so  I chose 
that  to  pursue."  Looking  back,  he  cites  his  parents  as  the  greatest  influence  in  his  athletic  life.  "They  have  been  there  through 
all  times — good  and  bad.  Though  they  are  always  be  ready  to  pat  me  on  the  back,  they  also  will  criticize  my  mistakes  and  keep 
me  down  to  earth." 

Garv  has  not  had  a problem  motivating  himself  for  the  games.  "It's  easy  to  get  motivated  for  something  that  you  love  to  do. 

! It's  when  you  don't  like  to  do  something  that  you  need  to  motiv'ate  yourself."  Over  the  years,  he  has  come  to  love  the  people 
he  meets  through  his  involvement  with  the  sport.  He  became  quite  close  to  various  coaches  and  players  on  a wide  array  of 
teams.  In  the  past  four  years,  he  has  enjoyed  the  rivalries  of  Assumption  and  Bentley.  "Undoubtedly  these  were  some  of  our 
most  memorable  games."  The  team  would  probably  agree  with  Gary  that  the  highlight  of  the  season  came  when  they 

synchronized  their  efforts  and  managed  to 
win  the  championship.  "We  faced  a 
tremendous  amount  of  adversity.  In  the  pre- 
season polls,  we  were  picked  to  finish  4th. 
People  were  con\’inced  that  it  was  a fluke  we 
got  so  far  in  the  90-91  season.  We  had  a tough 
start  with  a lot  of  ups  and  downs,  but  the 
victory  in  the  end  really  brought  us  close 
together..and  it  was  great  to  see  five  seniors, 
who  were  such  close  friends  leave  with 
championship  rings." 

Looking  ahead  to  the  upcoming  season,  Gary 
has  total  confidence  in  the  remaining 
members  of  the  team.  "Although  they  are 
young,  they  will  do  a great  job  if  they  work  to 
mature  as  a team  and  constantly  work 
towards  a common  goal." 

- Heather  Fleming 

The  play  of  Gary  Duda  will  definitely  be  missed  by 
fans  and  teammates  alike.  It  will  be  strange  to  sit  in 
the  stands  and  not  hear  that  infamous  announce- 
ment.. "Three  for  DUUUL'UUDA!"  Averaging  thirty 
six  minutes  of  play  per  game  and  14.1  points,  Gary 
Duda  put  his  heart  into  his  play.

With  592  saves,  for  a Goals  Against  Average  of  4.02, 
Steven  D'Amore  provided  some  solid  defense  for  the 
Warrior  squad. 


Steve  D'Amore  - Hockey 

Steven  D'Amore  started  playing  hockey  at  the  age  of  four.  "I  was  sort  of 
born  with  skates  on."  In  the  1984-85  season,  he  first  started  for  the  St.  Johri's 
Prepatory  School  Squad  and  was  in  goal  when  the  team  won  the  MIAA 
Division  One  Championship.  As  Steven  explained,  "Playing  in  the  Boston 
Garden  was  the  ultimate  rush."  At  one  point  in  his  high  school  career,  he 
was  even  told  that,  as  a result  of  an  injury,  he  would  never  play  again,  but, 
he  worked  diligently  to  dispel  that  myth. 

When  Steven  came  to  Merrimack,  he  didn't  make  the  team  right  away. 
Fortunately,  Assistant  Coach  Stu  Irvdng  helped  him  to  "stay  interested 
emotionally.."  Eventually,  Steve's  persistence  paid  off,  and  he  did  make  the 
squad.  "I  love  the  competitive  nature  of  the  sport. .It  is  a pure  adrenalin 
rush.  Just  the  thought  of  the  competition  gets  me  psyched  for  my  games." 
Looking  back  upon  his  career,  Steven  is  proud  of  the  contribution  he  was 
able  to  make  to  the  team  during  his  final  year  of  play.  He  hopes  that  future 
players  quickly  learn  to  appreciate  what  they  have..  "Once  it's  gone  you 
don't  get  it  back..  It  goes  by  very  quickly."  He  will  always  remember  Scott 
Lagrand  of  the  Boston  College  squaci  as  one  of  his  favorite  goalies  to  play 
against  and  the  University  of  Maine  as  one  of  his  favorite  teams.  As  Steve 
explained,  "Both  Scott  and  U.  of  Maine  had  a certain  mystique.  Besides,  it 
always  helps  you  to  see  how  good  you  really  are  when  you  play  against  the 
best."  Of  course,  little  else  will  be  remembered  as  fondly  as  the  victory 
against  Boston  University.  "They  always  took  the  ice  with  such  an  arrogance 
towards  us.  It  was  great  to  be  able  to  shut  them  up." 

Glancing  into  the  future.  Steepen  thinks  that  the  Warriors  will  definitely 
improve.  "We  have  already  improved  in  so  many  areas.,  goals  against, 
overall  defense  and  various  individual  statistics.  We  have  been  plagued  by 
some  painful  injuries  and  have  suffered  the  loss  of  some  talent  due  to 
academic  reasons,  but  the  future  should  bring  success.  A great  many  of  the 
team  will  be  coming  back  with  experience  and  Coach  Anderson  not  only 
recruits  well,  but  also  strives  to  bring  out  the  best  in  us  all.  Additionally,  the 
league  is  having  a changing  of  the  guards — a lot  of  the  established  players 
will  be  moving  into  the  pros.  This  will  only  enhance  our  chances  for 
success." 

Steven  is  working  to  graduate  with  a double  major  in  Marketing  and 
Chemistry.  After  one  of  his  early  science  courses,  he  realized  that  he  really 
liked  lab  work.  So  he  decided  to  pursue  a rather  rare  path  for  his  studies. 
He  would  like  to  thank  Dr.  Davis  for  being  Merrimack  College's  greatest 
hockey  fan  and  for  all  of  his  help  in  the  classroom. 

- Heather  Fleming 


Senior  Chris  Lovett  provided  solid  play  off  the  bench  for  the 
Warriors.  Chris  had  his  year  high  of  fourteen  points  against  North- 
east 10  rivals  Bentley  College. 


Clare  Mclnerney  averaged  twenty  eight  minutes  of  play  per 
game  and  contributed  259  points.  Undoubtedly,  as  Clare  moves 
into  her  senior  year,  she  will  be  looked  upon  to  provide  leader- 
ship to  the  younger  players. 


Teal  Fowler  - Hockey 


junior  Teal  Fowler  added  much  needed  offenseive  zeal  to  the  Merrimack  squad.  Fowler  was 
third  in  scoring,  behind  Pan  Gravelleand  Agostino  Casale.  He  netted  sixteen  goals  and  eleven 
assists. 


Kim  Page  - Softball 

Kim  Page  has  been  playing  softball  since  she  was  ten  years  old.  "My  dad 
was  drafted  by  the  pro's — My  sister  and  I became  the  sons  he  didn't 
ha  ve.. until  my  brother  was  born.."  She  continued,  "My  father  has  always 
been  one  of  the  most  significant  influences  in  my  athletic  career.  He  has 
always  pushed  me  to  be  the  best.  Now,  all  things  considered  I have  to  say 
that  I am  quite  glad  he  did  so."  Kim  added  with  a smile,  "We  even  have 
a field  in  our  back  yard.  My  father  fell  in  love  with  the  idea  when  he  saw 
the  movie  Field  of  Dreams.” 

Kim  loves  the  sport  of  softball.  She  has  no  problem  getting  psyched  up 
for  the  game,  "Just  knowing  everyone  else  behind  you  is  psyched  up  for 
the  game  makes  it  happen. .it  is  like  a unit."  She  loves  the  team  aspect  of 
softball  and  reinforces  the  importance  of  all  players.  "Without  the 
defense  behind  us,  it  wouldn't  work.. no  matter  how  well  we  pitch." 
Kim  explained  how  early  on  she  had  no  self-confidence,  but,  in  time  it 
grew.  "You  need  to  believe  in  yourself.. then,  and  only  then,  will 
everyone  else  believe  in  you."  In  reality,  Kim  has  everything  in  the  world 
to  be  confident  and  proud  of.  The  1991  Softball  Rookie  of  the  Year,  this 
English  major  is  also  a Varsity  Volleyball  player.  In  addition  to  her 
athletic  excellence,  she  has  been  named  to  the  Academic  All-American 
District  I team  for  Volleyball. 

Unlike  many  other  collegiate  athletes,  Kim  admires  two  athletes  that  are 
not  constantly  in  the  spotlight:  Jim  Abbot  and  University  of  North 
Carolina's  Linda  Lipson.  "I  just  admire  everything  about  Jim  Abbot., 
everything  he  went  through  with  only  one  arm.  Linda  Lipson  is  also  a 
definite  idol  for  her  involvement  and  excellence  in  two  Division  One 
sports,  track  and  softball." 

In  the  future,  Kim  would  love  to  coach  pitching.  "I  have  already  done  a 
lot  of  clinics..  I just  don't  know  if  1 have  the  necessary  patience." 
Looking  into  the  next  season,  Kim  would  definitely  like  to  go  to  the  Final 
Four.  "I  think  we  have  the  power  to  do  it..  It  was  sort  of  out  of  our  hands 
during  the  1992  season." 

- Heather  Fleming 


Kim  Page  prepares  to  fire  another  bullet  across  the  plate. 
With  148  strikeouts  this  season.  Page  was  definitely  a shining 
star  for  the  Lady  Warriors. 


Meeghan  Coffey  - Softball 


Meeghan  Coffey  fires  the  ball  across  the  diamond.  Meeghan  was 
definitely  an  offensive  spark  for  the  Lady  Warriors,  posting  a .466 
average  and  succeeding  in  eight  of  nine  stolen  base  attempts.

Boston  Company,  IBM,  Bull,  Raytheon,  The  Boston  Globe  and  Walt 
Disney.  The  continued  success  of  the  program  is  clirectly  related  to 
Merrimack  students  being  highly  regarded  and  in  demand  amongst 
the  \’arious  employers  that  hire  co-ops. 

Co-op  students  are  often  asked  why  they  have  joined  the 
program.  The  answer  most  often  heard  is,  "WHY  NOT?"  Co-op 
pro\'ides  students  with  what  they  need  to  be  competitive  in  today' s 
job  market.  These  jobs  help  to  develop  professionalism,  as  well  as 
the  technical  and  communication  skills  that  often  cannot  be  taught 
in  a classroom.  In  addition  to  the  skills  learned,  co-ops  also  develop 
a network  of  contacts  for  possible  future  employment  upon 
graduation.  Several  previous  students  have  received  offers  from 
their  former  Co-op  employers.  As  students  in  the  Co-op  program 
alternate  semestersof  work  and  school,  it  can  also  be  a useful  means 
for  financing  ones  education.  Although  participating  in  the  program 
rec]uires  students  to  be  in  school  an  extra  year,  most  feel  it  is  well 
worth  it.lt  enables  them  to  be  in  the  college  environment  one  more 
year  before  they  have  to  hit  the  "real  world." 

Benefits  receix'ed  from  Co-op  do  not  stop  while  on  the  job.  Once 
students  return  to  school  they  are  able  to  see  what  is  learned  in  the 
classroom  really  applies  in  the  wcirk  world.  They  are  able  to  share 
in  their  class  the  latest  information  and  techniques  being  utilized 
currently  on  the  job. 

When  graduation  finally  arrives  co-op  stucients  will  be  ready  to 
go  into  the  working  world  —they  have  been  there  before.

interaction  with  campus  life 
mav  be  minimal,  but  we  come 
to  campus  at  night  with  a 
dedication  and  commitment 
which  cannot  besurpassed.  By 
working  full  time,  continuing 
to  execute  our  domestic 
responsibilities,  and  pursuing 
our  education  all  at  the  same 
time,  we  have  proven  that  we 


can  overcome  any  tibstacles. 
binding  time  for  homework, 
writing  papers  and  studying 
forexams  is  very  difficult.  Free 
timeand  a social  lifearesimply 
non-existent  dreams. 

Undoubtedly,  we  will  look 
back  and  not  really  know  how 
on  earth  we  did  it! 

The  most  common  phrase  in 
our  language  is  “No,  1 can't 
because  1 have  a class  tonight." 
Constantly,  we  feel  fatigued.

as  we  so  frequently  are  forced 
to  burn  the  candle  at  both  ends. 
For  many  of  us,  summer  was  a 
time  when  we  were  sweating 
and  unable  to  breathe,  sitting 
in  classrooms  equipped  with 
fans,  but  without  extension 
cords  to  plug  them  in.  After  all 
is  said  and  done,  however,  we 
look  back  with  an  incredible 
sense  of  pride  and 
accomplishment,  a feeling 
words  could  never  express!  To 
feel  it  is  to  live  it. 

There  is  another  factor  which 
must  be  acknowledged  in 
order  to  make  this  picture 
complete:  the  commitment 
and  dedication  of  the  faculty 
to  our  education.  Without 
the  devotion  of  both  the 


Department  of  Continuing 
Education  and  the  professors 
who  were  willing  to  sacrifice 
so  much  of  their  free  time, 
our  eciucation  would  be 
impossible.  They  were 
compassionate  to  our 
educational  needs  and 
helped  ensure  our  attainment 
of  the  degrees  for  which  we 
strove.  We  too  will  leave 
Merrimack  College  as  proud 
and  accomplished  alumni 
and  we  would  like  to  thank 
those  dedicated  individuals 
who  have  made  our 
education  and  growth  not 
only  a dream,  but  also  a 
reality.

Graduation 


On  May  17,  Ci)ntinuing  Kdii- 
catinn  students  walked  across 
the  stage  in  Volpe  Complex 
to  receive  their  diplomas.  To 
these  members  of  the  Class  of 
1 W2,  graduation  signified  the 
success  of  earning  a degree 
while  working  full  time  and 
raising  a family. 


Carol  Bongiorno  describes  her 
college  experience  as  the  fol- 
lowing - ".My  time  at 
Merrimack  was  spent  learning 
new  ideas,  understanding  old 
ones  and  making  wonderful 
friends.  I lopefully  the  lessons 
learned  and  the  friendships 
made  here  will  last  a lifetime."

he  goal  of  the 
Accounting  and 
Finance  Society  is  to 
unite  accounting  and  finance 
majors  to  increase  their 
knowledge  of  accounting  a nd 
finance  practices  and 
methods.  The  society  helps 
stucients  to  meet  with  local 
and  national  businesses  to 
learn  about  their  company 
and  the  world  of  accounting 
and  finance  in  general.  We 
enthusiastically  support 
students  to  go  into  public, 
private,  and  government 
sectors  of  the  fielci.  We 
encourage  our  members  to 
address  current  issues  and 
trends  in  both  fielcis. 

Among  the  highlights  of 
the  1991-92  academic  year 
was  our  continued  affiliation 
with  the  Institute  of 


Management  Acccnmtants,  a 
national  accounting  organ- 
ization. This  organization 
serves  as  the  Society's  link  with 
the  local  business  community. 
Additionally,  it  provides 
students  with  the  opportunity 
to  establish  contacts  and 
valuable  information  on  the 
public  and  private  sectors  of 
accounting. 

This  year  we  hosted  our 
annual  "Big  Six  Night"  once 
again  during  Fall  recruiting. 
We  also  hosted  a "Career 
Afternoon"  during  the  spring 
semester  featuring  speakers 
and  representatives  from  both 
sectors  of  the  industry.  We 
overcame  our  budget  deficit 
by  selling  candy  bars  and  we 
also  had  a raffle  during  the  last 
week  of  classes. 

The  society  continues  to 


grow  and  we  hope  to  be  bigger 
than  ever  next  year.  Currently, 
we  are  working  on  affiliating 
the  society  with  a finance 
orgaiiization.  In  the  fall  of  1992, 
Professc')r  Andrews  will  be 
joining  the  society  as  a co- 


advisor. Thanks  to  all  of  our 
members  for  a successful 
year.  Best  of  luck  to  the 
seniors  as  they  head  into  the 
business  world.

he  Alternati\  e Voice, 
Merrimack  College's 
student  magazine,  is 
an  open  forum  tor  tlie 
Merrimack  community  to 
share  their  voices.  Our 
magazine  provides  a place 
where  students  as  well  as 
alumni,  professors,  staff 
members  and  administrators 
can  express  their  perception 
of  the  world  in  a creati\’e  form: 
poetry,  short  stories,  art, 
photography  and  so  forth. 
The  Voice  was  founded  in  the 
spring  semester  of  1989 
during  the  crumbling  of  the 
old  right-wing  newspaper, 
"The  Warrior"  and  was 
approved  as  an  official 
publication  the  following 
year.  Many  of  the  founders 
of  the  AV  were  tutors  in  the 
Writing  Center  who  shared  a 
strong  belief  in  the 
importance  of  writing  to  an 
audience.  Because  there  was 
no  open  forum  for  expression 
we  created  a magazine  that 
would  allow  people  to 
communicate  their  ideas, 
feelings  and  concerns. 

As  the  Senior  Editor,  1, 
Janine  Van  Patten,  am  one  of 
the  original  founders  of  the 
AV.  1 have  watched  the 
creation  of  the  AV,  seen  its 
growth  and  watched  us 
overcome  many  obstacles. 
When  we  first  began  our  main 
goal  was  to  not  take  any 
political  stand.  The  people's 
voices  that  we  publish  stand 
on  their  own  and  do  not  have 
to  fit  into  any  categories,  lam 
proud  to  say  that  the  AV  still 
allows  an  open  forum  and 
has  fought  to  keep  it  alive. 
Eric  Labbe,  our  first  Senior 
Editor,  stated  the  big  paradox 
of  the  AV  quite  clearly: 

By  trying  to  remove  oiirsehes 
from  any  siftgle  political  cause, 


we  have  taken  a political  staiul.  I 
guess  you  coulii  say  that  our  staml 
is  with  the  imliviiiual.  Wc  as  a 
magazine  don't  necessarily  have  a 
political  view  that  is  any  more 
narrow  than  the  belief  in  an  open 
forum.  Ami  at  Merrimack  College 
at  least,  this  is  an  especially 
political  idea.  On  a campus  where 
conformity  seems  to  be  the  name 
of  the  game  a lot  of  the  time,  and 
dii’ersity  just  doesn' t seem  toexist , 
an  attempt  at  recognizing  the 
diversity  of  personalities  is  a 
radical  act,  of  a sort. 

Given  the  nature  of  our 
college  and  colleges  across  the 
country,  true  expression  is  a 
difficult  thing  to  come  by. 
Conformity  is  in.  Social  life  in 
college  centers  around  a keg 
and  is  dictated  by  sororities 
and  fraternities  who  gain 
membership  through  policies 
of  hazing.  Membership  to  the 
AV  is  based  on  personal 
interest  and  the  desire  to 
participate  in  an  academic 
related  activity  and  sub- 
missions are  received  form 
people  with  the  pure  interest 
of  communicating  their  stories, 
ideas  and  concerns  to  the 
Merrimack  College  commun- 
ity. To  me  the  fact  that  so  many 
are  willing  to  subject 
themselves  to  pledging  in  order 
to  be  accepted  into  a pre- 
packaged social  life  is 
disturbing.  1 would  like  to 
challenge  more  students  to 
pursue  their  interests  even  if  it 
means  being  alone.  It  is  more 
difficult  to  express  oneself  as 
an  individual. 

The  AV  has  faced  a few 
challenges  from  the  college, 
however  we  wouldn't  have 
stayed  alive  if  we  didn't  receive 
support  also.  In  our  beginning, 
we  had  to  face  a rather  angry 
now  ex-administrator  who  felt 
that  students  shouldn't  be 


allowed  to  publish  a magazine 
and  an  unknown  priest  who 
lives  in  Austin  Hall  who 
remo\'ed  a few  magazines  from 
Austin  1 lall  because  he  fell  that 
the  AV  wasn't  Catholic 
enough.  But  on  the  brighter 
side  we  did  receive  funding  in 
a very  prompt  manner  as  far  as 
that  goes  and  the  Writing 
Center  has  been  very  helpful. 
Dr.  A1  DeCiccio,  Director  of 
the  Writing  Center  and  our 
advisor  has  allowed  us  to  use 
the  computers  and  office  space 
in  the  Writing  Center.  What  1 
would  like  to  see  is  more 
support  from  the  college  in 


general.  Because  we  are  an 
organization  that  has  an 
academic  nature,  1 feel  that  we 
have  an  important  role  in  the 
community.  Students  whv 
submit  are  doing  so  willingly, 
not  because  they  have  to  get  a 
grade.  The  AV  shows  that  there 
is  a strong  interest  in  writing 
and  learning.  1 would  like  the 
community  of  Merrimack  to 
bring  ou  r college  back  to  a place 
of  learning  in  which  the  utmost 
importance  is  placed  on  the 
role  of  student  and  teacher.

he  goal  of  the 
Merrimack  College 
Marketing  Associa- 
tion is  to  bring  the  fast  chang- 
ing anct  fascinating  field  of 
Marketing  to  students  who 
wish  to  explore  the 
opportunitiesthatawaitthem 
upon  graduation.  Our  goal 
was  well  achie\’ed  this  semes- 
ter as  we  sponsored  a record 
breaking  number  of  chari- 
table events  both  on  and  off 
campus  to  benefit  those  in 
need. 

A canned  food  drive  was 
organized  to  assist  families 
in  the  Lawrence  and 
Somer\'ille  areas  whose  chil- 
dren have  been  stricken  by 
theAlDSx'irus.  The  response 
from  the  entire  Merrimack 
community  was  no  surprise 
as  we  filled  several  cars  to  the 
brim  transporting  food  to  the 
stKial  workers.  Surprisingly, 
professors  were  fighting  to 
sign  up  for  the  first  annual 
DunkTank Festival!  Thissun 
filled  day  of  laughs  and  lots 
of  water  not  only  helped  to 
foster  comraderie  amongst 
faculty  and  students,  but  it 
also  helped  to  raise  money 
for  the  needy  families  in 
Lawrence  and  Somerxille. 
The  AsscKiation  also  created 
and  distributed  Easter  Bas- 
kets to  these  families.  Of 
course,  it  didn't  stop  there. 
At  Christmas,  money  was 
donated  to  the  families  to 
keep  the  spirits  bright! 

As  part  of  our  intent  to 
bring  the  world  of  Market- 
ing as  it  exists  today  to  the 
lead  ersof  tomorrow,  we  were 
pleased  to  invite  Mr. 


McDougal  from  McDougal 
Associates  Advertising  and 
Public  Relations  firm  from 
Peabody,  MA.  He  whet  our 
appetites  with  the  possibili- 
ties that  await  us  and  the 
proper  steps  to  take  in  get- 
ting there. 

In  addition  to  many  suc- 
cessful fundraising  cam- 
paigns, we  were  successful 
with  extending  our  annual 
Fall  Semester  Surv  ival  Kits 
program  into  the  spring  se- 
mester as  well.  Kiss  the  Se- 
niors goodbye  was  another 
first  time  event  held  in  his- 
tory of  the  Association.  Stu- 
dents could  buy  Hershey 
Kisses  for  their  friends  and 
wish  them  well  upon  their 
graduation. 

In  the  fall,  members  of  the 
club  were  able  to  attend  the 
annual  regional  conferenceat 
Johnson  and  Wales  College. 


Theday  was  full  of  new  learn- 
ing experiences  with  net- 
working and  lots  of  enjoy- 
ment. In  April,  the 
Merrimack  Marketing  Asso- 
ciation attended  the  Interna- 
tional Collegiate  Conference 
in  New  Orleans,  Lousiana. 
The  Merrimack  Association 
was  awarded  "Best 
Fundraising  Chapter  of  the 
Year"  by  the  American  Mar-

Ash  Hall  Council 


he  Ash  Hall  council  has 
done  a great  job  this 
year  planning  events 
for  students,  sponsoring 
fundraisers  and  v^olunteering 
in  community  services.  To  start 
the  year  off,  we  co-sponsored 
and  participated  in  the  Big 
Brother  / Big  Sister  program. 
We  took  the  children  of 
Lawrence  to  the  Omni  Theater 
at  the  Museum  of  Science.  We 
also  donated  some  time  and 
ef  fort  to  the  cause  by  providing 
activities  for  the  children  here 
on  campus. 

We  have  focused  our 


attention  in  other  directions  as 
well.  For  example,  the  Lazarus 
House  was  one  great 
experience  which  left  a lasting 
impression.  As  a result,  we 
have  tried  to  go  back  to  visit 
every  couple  of  months. 
Additionally,  we  worked  to 
sponsor  v^arious  fundraisers. 
At  Halloween  there  was  a 
dance  and  costume  party.  For 
Valentines's  Day,  we  sold 
lollipops. 

Members  should  be 
congratulated  and  praised  for 
their  time  and  effort.

Contest.  We  invited  several  area  high 
schools  to  compete  in  a day  long 
contest  which  required  the  talented 
high  school  students  to  solve  a 
challenging  set  of  problems  by  writing 
computer  programs.  As  usual,  the 
contest  provided  a valuable  learning 
experience  for  both  the  participants 
and  ourselves. 

Each  year,  our  organization 
sends  two  members  across  the  countrv 
to  represent  Merrimack  at  the 
International  Computer  Science 
Conference  where  the  dedicated  elite 
from  around  the  world  meet  for  a 
week  long  program  featuring  the\'ery 
latest  in  the  computing  industry.  This 
year  Christine  Paradis  and  John 
Ahearn  trav^eled  to  Kansas  City, 
Missouri  where  they  attended 
workshops  and  seminars  in  order  to 
improve  their  ability  to  run  a 
successful  student  chapter. 

With  the  passing  of  the  1991-1992 
academic  year,  the  student  chapter  of 
the  ACM  is  entering  a new  generation. 
The  graduating  seniors  are  the  last  of 
the  founding  members  of  our  group. 


In  their  place  are  a group  of  enthusiastic  and 
motivated  underclassmen  who  deserve  a thank 
you  for  the  valuable  contributions  they  have 
made  to  our  group  this  year.  We  also  extend 
our  gratitude  to  Professor  Patricia  Ducharme, 
who  founded  our  chapter  in  1987  and  to  Dr. 
Walter  Maxey,  who  is  our  current  faculty 
advisor.

I he  Merrimack  College  Student 
A J chapterof  the  Association  for 
Computing  Machinery  is  a 
group  of  students  who  share  an 
interest  in  the  computer  science  field. 
We  are  part  of  an  international 
organization  of  computer  profes- 
sionals. 

Our  chapter  has  come  a long  way 
since  its  recognition  in  1987.  Wehave 
strived  to  be  an  asset  to  the  Merrimack 
College  community  by  sponsoring 
student  run  presentations,  workshops 
and  demonstrations  to  help  others 
adapt  to  our  computer  facilities.  On 
the  road  to  success,  our  biggest 
obstacle  has  been  keeping  people 
involved  in  our  group.  Membership 
in  a professional  society  such  as  our 
group  requires  a commitment  of  time 
which  is  something  v'ery  few 
Merrimack  students  are  willing  to 
give.  Another  obstacle  has  been 
constant  red  tape  which  we  faced  time 
and  time  again  in  trying  to  organize 
successful  events. 

This  year  we  continued  our 
traditional  high  school  Programming

Biology  Club 

■ ' ==JT 


Top:  Tina,  John  Ford,  Linda  Carleton,  Patricia  Novelli,  Rita  Potter.  Bottom:  Andrew. 


he  Biology  Club  is  made  up  of  a diverse 
group  of  individuals  who  share  a 
common  interest,  science.  Member- 
ship includes  mostly  biology  majors  and 
minors,  as  well  as  allied  health  majors. 
However,  students  from  other  majors  are 
encouraged  to  join.  This  past  year,  the  club 
exhibiteci  its  concern  for  the  environment  by 
participating  in  "Beach  Sweep  '91."  This 
entailed  donating  time  to  assist  in  the  attempts 
to  clean  up  a portion  of  Salisbury  Beach. 

Through  increased  participation  and 
enthusiasm,  the  Biology  Club  was  revived. 
We  not  only  raised  money  by  selling  M&M's, 
but  also  were  able  to  enjoy  the  profits  during 
our  Christmas  banquet.  It  was  a great 
achievement  for  the  club  to  be  able  to  afford 
this  fun-filled  night.  Additionally,  during  the 
semester,  we  organized  a trip  to  the  Ac|uarium 
and  designed  T-shirts. 

We  are  looking  forward  to  another  great 
year,  during  which  we  will  visit  the  Museum 
of  Science,  the  zoo,  and  we  will  organize  a 
hiking  trip.

Merrimack  College 

Chorale 


®his  has  been  a suc- 
cessful year  for  the 
Merrimack  College 
Chorale.  Once  comprised 
mostly  of  students,  the 
Chorale  now  consists  of 
students.  Alumni,  staff,  and 
neighbors  of  Merrimack 
College. 

Our  early  set  back  this  year 
was  the  small  number  of 
student  members  so  that  we 
could  be  off  icially  recognized 
by  Student  Activities.  This 
challenge  was  ov'ercome  by  a 
core  group  of  students,  some 
of  whom  later  became  part  of 
the  executive  board. 

With  Campus  Ministry's 
SLi  pport,  we  came  together  on 
several  occasions  including 
New  Student  Orientation, 
Vespens  (the  service  for 
Christmas),  and  Baccalureate. 
The  Chorale  would  like  to 


give  thanks  to  Dr.

1993  Class  Council 


or  the  1993  Class 
■p  I Council,  1991-1992 
A j presented  many  new 
and  exciting  challen- 
ges. We  faced  high  expec- 
tations, but  worked  diligently 
to  leave  our  classmates  with 
many  happy  memories  of  an 
enjoyable,  memorable  year. 
Starting  in  September,  Class 
President  Steven  Cicilline, 
along  with  the  rest  of  the 
council,  worked  hard  in 
laying  the  foundations  for  the 
class  of  1993's  "Junior  Week" 
to  be  held  in  early  March. 

The  December  elections 
saw  a new  council  take  office 
with  many  new  ideas  and 
tremendous  enthusiasm. 
Cicilline  turned  his  reign  over 
to  newly  elected  Mike  Hart. 
Hart  has  done  an  exceptional 
job  representing  his  class- 


mates as  president.  This  new 
council  proceeded  in  planning 
and  finalizing  the  events  for 
"Junior  Week." 

The  events  were  kicked  off 
with  a Lip  Sync/ Comedy  Nite 
on  March  5th.  Mike  Hart,  and 
his  partner,  Mike  Dillon,  took 
first  place  singing  "1  Got  You 
Babe."  On  March  6th,  the 
Shamboo  All  Stars  Reggae 
Band  performed  at  the 
Windsor  Mills  in  Dracut.  The 
final  event  was  the  formal,  held 
at  the  Raddison  in  Woburn. 
All  the  hard  work  paid  off 
when  the  events  ended  up  a 
fabulous  success. 

The  Class  of  1993  deserves 
nothing  but  the  best  and  this 
council  has  worked  hard  to 
give  them  just  that.  Senior  year, 
here  we  come!!

Commuter  Council 


he  Commuter  Council 
looks  to  fulfill  the  needs 
of  some  of  fhe  most 
dedicated  students  in  the 
Merrimack  College  commun- 
itv,  the  ones  who  drive  miles  in 
the  morning  in  all  sorts  of 
weather,  while  the  other  half  is 
' rolling  out  of  bed  five  minutes 
before  the  start  of  class.  The 
Council  also  looks  to  sponsor 
events  that  residents,  faculty 
members,  and  staff  members  are 
free  to  enjoy. 

This  year  the  Council  brought 
the  Disc  Jockey,  MVP  to 
Merrimack  three  times.  Adcii- 
tionally,  we  co-sponsored  the 
Irish  Band,  the  Moonshiners 
with  Program  Boarci.  Through- 
out the  year,  we  were  also 
involved  in  arranging  various 
lip  syncs,  and  trips.  As  usual, 
one  of  the  greatest  successes  was 
our  annual  trip  to  New  York 
City  before  the  Christmas 
holiday. 

This  year,  we  played  an  active 
role  in  something  new  at 
Merrimack.  Together  with  the 
American  Marketing  Associ- 


ation and  Program  Board,  we 
introduced  a different  means 
of  fundraising,  a dunking 
booth.  We  would  like  to  thank 
the  faculty  and  students  for 
their  various  contributions  in 
the  effort  to  raise  money  for 
families  with  members 
suffering  from  AIDS.  Hope- 


fully, next  year,  the  weather 
will  cooperate  better! 

Members  of  the  Council 
would  like  to  invite  commu  ters 
to  drop  into  our  office  with  any 
ideas,  or,  just  to  say  hi!  We 
would  also  like  to  encourage 
all  commuters  to  get  invoh^ed.

dedicated  tuture  educators 
need  to  support  each  other

Institute  of  Electrical  and 
Electronics  Engineers 


I he  Institute  of 
A J Electrical  and  Elec- 
tronics Engineers 
(IEEE)  has  320,000  worldwide 
members  who  share  common 
careers  or  stuci  ies  in  the  field  s. 
The  raison  d'etre  of  our 
student  branch  is  to  provide 
a somewhat  informal  social 
and  educational  experience 
for  our  members  and 
members  of  the  college 
community  through  activities 
including  field  trips,  guest 
speakers,  scholarships,  and 
services. 

This  past  year  has  been  a 
successful  time  for  the  IEEE. 
We  visited  three  companies; 
AGEA  Corp.,  M-C,  and  finally 
AT&T.  They  were  more  than 
helpful  in  providing  us  with 
these  visit  opportunities.  We 
had  an  alum,  Jeff  Kenedy, 
come  to  a packed  Arundel 
Room  to  speak  about  what 
challenges  a graduate  faces, 
and  what  options  are 
available.  This  was  a visit 
welcomed  by  many  of 
Merrimack's  engineering 
seniors.  The  IEEE  awarded 
three  scholarships  last  year 
to  students  of  Merrimack 
College.  We  starfed  an  IEEE 
library  that  contains  over  70 
monthly  technical  journals 
that  all  students  have  access 
to.  Also,  we  developed  a 
tutoring  program  and 
provided  free  tutoring  service 
to  EE  students  during  the 
year. 

The  club  has  faced  its  share 


of  obstacles  in  melding  with 
the  college  community,  seeing 
that  it  is  still  in  its  infancy.  But, 
the  dedication  of  Alex,  Russ, 
Mark,  and  our  advisor. 
Professor  Tsuei,  has  brought 
us  to  cope  with  our  difficulties, 
meet  the  challenges,  and  beat 
them.  We  look  forward  to  the 
upcoming  year,  and  wish  the 
graduating  class  of  1992  the 
best  of  luck!

Intercultural  Club 


Indents  treni  Atrica, 
Hiirope,  Central  and 
South  America, 
Middle  and  East  Asia  came 
together  this  year  to  form  the 
Intercultural  Club.  Together 
with  their  US-American 
peers,  they  explored  the  'New 
World'  and  broadened  their 
horizon  with  one  another. 
Sex'eral  e\’ents  showed  them 
the  scenic  beauty  and  the  rich 
cultural  life  of  Boston  and  the 
surrounding  areas.  Trips  led 
to  the  USS  Constitution, 
Salem,  MA,  and  Harvard 
Square.  The  students  also 
ventured  into  foreign  arts:  the 
'Foreign  Film  Nights,'  which 
featured  movies  from 
countries  such  as  Spain, 
France,  and  Germany,  helped 
the  students  to  form  a better 


understanding  of  cultures 
different  than  their  own. 
Equally  helpful  were  the  rich 
and  diverse  discussit)ns 
during  the  club  meetings. 
Many  new  and  interesting 
friendships  developed.  This 
is  a ma  ni  testa  tion  of  the  club's 
goal:  To  integrate  students 
from  every  cultural  back- 
ground, especially  those,  who 
are  new  to  the  country,  into 
the  Merrimack  College 
Community  and  to  establish 
a lasting  bond  between  all 
members.  Being  a part  of  the 
Intercultural  Club  is  a lasting 
and  unforgettable  exper- 
ience, a truly  mind-opening 
adv^enture.

The  Law  Society 


] he  purpose  of  the  Law  Society  is  to 
A I assist  students  of  all  majors  in 
preparation  for  entrance  into  the 
various  available  legal  professions.  The 
members  hope  to  inform  the  college  community 
about  issues  of  interest  within  society.  In 
February  of  1991,  the  Law  Society  began  to 
reestablish  itself.  The  newly  elected  Executive 
Board  worked  hard  to  pull  together  the  large, 
enthusiastic  group  that  we  are  today.  The 
residing  Executive  Board  is  as  follows:  President 
- Joe  Doyon,  Vice  President  - Tracy  Ellsworth, 
Secretary  - Paula  Norton,  Treasurer  - Jennifer 
Chistolini  and  Public  Relations  - Marie  Schnyer 
and  AnnMarie  Webb. 

In  the  past,  the  Law  Society  has  sponsored 
guest  speakers  such  as  a representative  from 
former  United  States  Senator  Paul  Tsongas' 
Lowell  campaign  headquarters,  has  sponsored 
trips  to  the  annual  Law  Eorum  in  Boston,  and, 
has  worked  on  various  fundraising  campaigns. 
In  the  future,  the  Law  Society  hopes  to  increase

On-Stagers: 


icture  yourself  working 
with  a group  of  both 
talented  students  and 
professionals  towards  the 
i commongoalof  displaying  your 
I talents  to  an  audience  for  six 
1 nights  each  semester.  Patience, 
■ time,  nerves,  energy  and  zest 
I are  just  a few  qualities  held  by 
I these  people  known  as  the  On- 
I Stagers. 

I In  the  fall,  a cast  of  ten 
performed  the  Neil  Simon 
comedy,  "Rumors."  There  was 
much  praise  for  the  play  and  its 
student  performers.  Then,  as 
the  second  semester  began, 
auditions  also  began  for  the 
musical  "Gypsy."  This  tumed 
out  to  be  the  largest  cast  the  On- 
Stagers  has  ever  had.  There  was 
a lot  of  time  and  energy  put  into 
each  of  these  productions,  but 
we  managed  to  have  fun 
throughout  it  aU! 


Of  course,  at  the  close  of  the 
91-92  academic  year,  elections 
took  place.  The  new  E-Board 
consists  of:  Jane  Estrella: 
President,  Scott  Jones:  V.P.,Juhe 
Harte:  Secretary,  Jodi  Gennaco: 
Treasurer,  Ted  Kempinski: 
Member  At  Large,  and  Eaculty 
Advisor:  Rev.  Kevin  J.  Keelen, 
O.S.A.  Along  with  the  many 
talented  new  comers  the  On- 
Stagers  saw,  they  bid  a farewell 
to  a few  seniors  who  hav'e  made 
many  contributions  to  this 
family. 

Where  else  can  you  meet  so 
many  different  people  with 
different  backgrounds  and  work 
towards  a goal  of  entertaining 
people?  You  "gotta  have  a 
gimmick"  to  get  through  college 
and  if  you  want  to  share  in  an 
experience  of  a lifetime,  then  the 
On-Stagers  is  for  you.

Political  Science 

Society 


fter  over  a year  of 
I relative  obscurity  and 
y_  V disorganization,  the 
i Merrimack  College  Political 
j Science  Society  made  a 
comeback  here  on  campus. 

. Under  the  leadership  of  new 
\ presicient,  Kristen  Smith, 

: advisor,  Harry  Wessel,  and  a 
I core  group  of  active  students, 

I the  Political  Science  Society 
I elected  a new  execu  hve  board 
and  increased  its 
membership  among  students 
of  many  different  majors. 
This  club  seeks  to  bring 
together  politically  inerested 
students  of  all  majors  into  a 
non-partisan  environment 
where  differing  views  can  be 
expressed. 

In  March  of  92,  the  Political 
Science  Society  sponsored 
one  of  the  most  successful 
events  in  recent  years.  In  the 
midst  of  an  interesting 
presidential  primary  season, 
the  group  brought  Ralph 
Nader  to  campus.  Nader,  the 


famous  consumer  advocate 
and  citizen  watchciog, 
brought  his  message  of 
political  change  to  the 
Merrimack  community. 
Nader  spoke  to  a packed 
crowd  of  students,  professors, 
and  local  residents  in  Murray 
Lounge  for  over  an  hour  anci 
later  appeared  on  a special 
broadcast  of  MECCA-13, 
during  which  he  was 
interviewed  by  our  advisor, 
Harry  Wessel. 

The  Society's  projects  for 
the  coming  year  include  a 
planned  Political  Science 
Alumni  night  where  students 
can  meet  with  successful 
alumni  and  gain  advice  and 
insight  into  future  careers. 
The  Political  Science  Society 
will  also  be  co-hosting  Peace 
aiul  Social  Justice  Week  in 
the  fall  and  plans  to  bring 
more  guest  speakers  in  the 
92-93  academic  year. 

Joseph  'PatricliSutfwan 


Are  the  people  ready  for  a candidate  as  unconventional  as  Nader?? 
Although  the  majority  of  us  probably  aren't,  there  was  a sizeable 
turnout  to  listen  to  his  wisdom  the  day  Ralph  Nader  visited  Merrimack 
College.  He  may  not  have  the  experience  of  George  Bush,  or  the  good 
looks  and  charm  of  Bill  Clinton,  but  there  is  something  captivating 
about  this  gentleman.

elcome  to  the 
Merrimack 
Program  Board, one 
of  the  largest  student  run 
organizations  on  campus 
solely  dedicated  to 
entertaining  students.  The 
members  of  the  group  work 
hard,  and  their  dedication  to 
the  Board  reflects  in  the 
numerous  programs  chosen 
for  the  Merrimack  commun- 
ity. 

MPB  programs  a variety 
of  events  throughout  any 
given  semester.  While  a few 
remain  trad  itiona  1,  many  new 
items  have  been  added  as 
well.  Program  Board's 
Theme  Weeks  hav'e  become 
popular  around  campus. 
They  consist  of  Welcome 


Week  for  the  first  week  back 
in  September;  Winter  Week 
for  entertainment  before 
finals  and  Christmas  Break; 
Welcome  Back  Week  to  kick 
off  the  second  semester;  and 
Spring  Week,  which 
concludes  the  year  with  the 
annual  Spring  Concert. 

The  One  Night  Stand  (ONS) 
Series,  established  a few  years 
ago,  continues  today  with  its 
popular  comedy /variety 
shows,  bringing  well  known 
comedians  and  artists  to  the 
Merrimack  Campus. 

A new  endeavor  taken  on 
by  MPB  this  past  year  has 
been  the  introduction  of 
weekend  programming, and 
it  has  been  met  by  great 
success.  This  concept  has 


evok  ed  into  a series  known 
as  the  Saturday  Things.  Like 
the  ONS  series,  the  main 
concentration  focuses  on 
bringing  comedians,  \’ariety 
shows  and  small  bands  to 
campus  on  weekends.  In 
conjunction  with  this 
weekend  progranuning  idea, 
the  Movies  segment  has 
expanded  to  provide 
Saturday  Matinees  and 
Double  Features  in  addition 
to  the  traditional  weeknight 
mo\’ies. 

Finally,  this  past  year  has 
introduced  a new  lecture 
series  to  the  MPB  agenda. 
Av'eraging  at  about  two  per 
semester,  the  lectures 
promote  awareness  of 
educational  issues  among 


students  as  well  as  facoilty 
members.  The  hope  is  to 
attract  more  jxx)ple  as  the 
series  becomes  more  popular. 
Involvement  with  the 
Program  Board  pro\  es  to  be 
a rewarding  experience. 
Fellow  members  develop 
great  working  relationships 
with  each  other  as  well  as  the 
professional  entertainers  they 
bring  to  Merrimack.  0\  erall, 
the  Merrimack  Program 
Board  pro\'ides  a wonderful 
opportuniW  to  meet  lots  of 
new  people.  Anyone  not  in 
the  group  is  missing  out  on  a 
tally  great  experience  here  at 
Merrimack  College.

Public  Service 
Internship 


ffered  by  the  Political 
Science  ciepartment 
each  spring,  the  Public 
I Service  Internship  Program  is 
I open  to  juniors  and  seniors  of  all 
I majors.  The  program  enables 
( students  to  gain  experience  and 
integrate  their  knowledge  in  a 
professional  environment  by 
serving  as  staff  aides  in  v^arious 
gov^ernment  offices. 

Students  meet  with  the 
program's  advisor  to  discuss  the 
student's  interests  and 
determine  an  appropriate 
placement.  Interns  receive  six 
credits  and  are  recquired  to  work 
twenty  hours  a week,  write  an  in 
depth  policy  analysis,  make  an 
informal  presentation  of  their 
research  and  participate  in 
biweekly  seminars. 

This  year,  fourteen  students 
participated  in  the  program. 
Their  placements  ranged  from 
fhe  State  House,  Frost  School, 
Peabody  Community 

Development  Office,  Lawrence 
City  Attorney's  Office,  U.S. 
District  Court,  AIDS  Action 
Committee  and  United  States 
Senator  John  Kerry's  Office. 

The  Public  ServTce  Internship 
provides  an  invaluable 
experience  for  those  who 
participate  in  it.  I would  highly 
recommend  the  program  to  all 
students,  especially  political 
science  majors  looking  to  gain 
experience  in  government  and 

politics.  (\(arwn ‘J{afferty

rO  n October  9, 1984  the  largest  and  oldest  sorority  at  Merrimack,  Pi  Theta  Epsilon,  was  founded.  The  letters  I^E  symbolize 

pride,  trust  and  et|uality.  These  are  the  beliefs  for  which  all  sisters  pride  themselves.  With  each  new  pledge  class  these  beliefs  are 
intensified. 

In  its  eight  year  experience,  PTE  has  proven  themseh'es  in  the  community,  going  from  being  the  only  sorority'  on  campus 
to  the  largest  of  three.  In  the  fall  PTE  participated  in  the  Walk-a-thon  for  cancer.  At  Christmas,  time  was  spent  wrapping  presents 
for  orphaned  children.  Each  semester  proceeds  from  a bake  sale  help  the  rape  crisis  center.  Recently  PTE  has  participated  with 
Iron  Stone  farm  in  walking  handicapped  children  on  horses.  During  Spring  Week,  PTE  sponsored  a weeklong  carnival  for  the 
college  community.  Brought  about  bv  the  hard  work  of  fundraiser  Christine  Amato,  I’TE  hopes  the  carnival  will  be  an  annual 
event.  It  is  these  community  projects  that  bond  the  sisterhood  in  Pi  Theta  Epsilon. 

The  sisters  of  PTE  would  like  to  thank  Sister  Elaine  for  all  of  her  help.  Our  accomplishments  would  not  have  been  jxissibk^ 
without  her.  The  sisters  of  PTE  would  like  to  congratulate  the  Nu  class  and  the  Xi  class  as  well  as  the  graduating  sisters.

Hach  year,  boh)re  the  holidays,  the 
Commuter  Council  sponsors  a trip  to 
New  York  City,  hor  a mere  sixteen 
dollars,  students  were  transported  by 
bus  for  an  adv'enturous  day  in  the 
city.  This  year,  a large  number  of 
students  took  advantage  of  the  low 
price  and  chauffered  transportation 
to  visit  the  Big  Apple.  Whether  to 
sightsee  or  go  Christmas  shopping, 
the  students  took  full  advantage  of 
the  city's  offerings.  They  took  in  the 
atmosphere  of  the  city,  eating  at  a 
sausage  stand  and  visiting  such  spots 
as  the  Empire  State  Building,  NBC 
studios  and  Radio  City  Music  Hall. 
Despite  the  long,  tiresome  ride,  those 
who  participated  in  the  trip  had  a 
great  time  and  look  forward  to  next 
year's  trip.

This  vcar.  Commuter  Hdi- 
tor  I leather  1 liissey  and  her 
statt  took  on  the  responsi- 
bility ot  surveying 
Merrimack's  commuters. 
1 lere  are  some  ot  the  facts 
they  were  able  to  compile. 
Thank  you  to  everyone  who 
helped  by  filling  out  sur- 
veys! 


As  you  might  expect,  we  received  a 
wide  range  of  answers  to  this  ques- 
tion. Students  aredriving  as  slow  as 
30  mph  and  as  fast  as  80  mph.  80 
sounds  like  the  speed  a student  is 
traveling  at  on  his  or  her  way  to 
school,  but  30?  Sounds  a little 
strange. 


Other  Responses  Included: 


"Too  fast!" 

"About  5 mph  - - 1 walk." 

"It  depends  on  how  late  1 am." 

How  many  students  actually  obey  the  15  mph 
speed  limit  on  campus? 


! 


““ILSssins®  aiadl 


Most  commuters  are 
obeying  the  speed 
limit  - either  that  or 
they'vebeen  lucky!  Ot 
those  surveyed,  only 
ten  have  been  pulled 
over  going  to  or  from 
school.  Six  of  those 
students  got  tickets. 
Some  of  them  have 
gotten  more  than  one 
ticket.  How  much 
were  the  tickets  for? 
Charges  ranged  from 
$50  and  $70  to  as  much 
as $160  and  $180!  Slow 
down  - or  buy  a radar

Merrimack  commut- 
ers are  traveling  in 
style!  The  majority 
of  those  surveyed 
own  cars  that  are 
fairly  new.  The  most 
popular  year  of  make 
is  1987,  closely  fol- 
lowed by  1989,  1985 
and  1991.  We  may 
have  to  keep  an  eye 
out  for  the  police,  but 
at  least  we  don't  have 
to  worry  too  much 
about  our  car  break- 
ing down  because  it's 
too  old .

A few  students  are  listening  to 
tapes  of  their  favorite  artists 
Michael  Bolton,  Billy  Joel  and 
Ozzy  Osbourne.  The  majority  of 
you,  however,  choose  to  listen  to 
the  radio  cruising  to  and  from 
campus. 

Favorite  radio  stations,  in  order 
of  popularity,  include: 


94.5  WZOU 
100.7  WZXL 
107.3  WAAF 
KISS  108 


Moz’e  - These  two  students  are  in  charge  of  the  music  during  the  Greek  Games.  If 
they're  like  most  of  Merrimack  commuters,  they're  tuned  in  to  94.5  WZOU.

This  year  the  Com- 
muter Council 
sponsored  a trip  to 
Boston  to  see  Shear 
Madness.  Students 
enjoyed  the  Boston 
nightlife,  seeing  the 
production  and 
spending  a few  fun 
filled  hours  in 
Faneuil  Hall.  With 
such  a successful 
event  under  their 
belts,  perhaps  the 
Commuter  Council 
will  sponsor  trips  to 
see  other  produc- 
tions in  the  future.

"I  was  on  my  way  home  Friday 
afternoon.  It  was  around  noon  and 
I was  at  the  intersection  of  Routes 
114  and  125.  This  old  guy  ran  the 
red  light  and  hit  me.  And  1 got 
blamed  for  it!"

happened  to  me  was 
being  stuck  in  traffic 
on  Route  495  and 
missing  an  exam  that  1 
was  unable  to  make 
up!" 

yim  Sufeeney 


"I  got  pulled  over  on 
Route  114  for  having 
my  radio  on  too  loud. 
The  cop  said  that  he 
heard  the  beat  of  my 
music  and  waited  a 
mile  for  me  to  get  to 
him.  He  gave  me  a 
warning  and  said  that 
anc')ther  offense  would 
result  in  a ticket  and 
eventually  confiscation 
of  my  car!"

"Last  winter  in  the  cold, 
the  muffler  fell  off  my  car 
approximately  1/2  mile 
from  my  house,  on  the 
way  to  class.  I got  out, 
went  back  to  my  house 
and  got  my  mom's  car. 
On  the  way  to  school  I ran 
out  of  gas  on  Route  125  in 
North  Andover  and  had 
to  call  AAA  to  get  gas  for 
me.  tended  up  being  very 
late  for  class.  Should  have

ered about  150%  of  my

"The  funniest  thing  that  has  happened  to  me  was  when  a 
state  trooper  pulled  me  over  for  eating  and  driving  at  the 
same  time.  I got  about  a twenty  minute  lecture  from  the 
trooper,  but  I didn't  get  a ticket!" 

Denise  iMurphy  - 9dedford 


"When  it  rains,  the  roads 
get  too  slippery.  1 drove 
down  Route  114  from  the 
light  to  the  Volpe  Com- 
plex sideways  in  all  lanes 
and  missed  the  entrance!"

"The  worst  experience  1 
had  when  commuting  to 
school  was  when  I did  a 
360  in  the  pouring  rain 
right  in  front  of  my  par- 
ents. 1 guess  they  worry

Political  hiterlude 


Former  senator  Paul  Tsongas  visited  the  Merrimack  College 
campus  on  the  sunny,  cool  afternoon  of  March  10,  1992. 
Senator  Tsongas'  discussion  covered  a wide  range  of  topics, 
focusing  on  the  1 992  presidential  race.  Senator  Tsongas  spoke 
of  his  own  campaign,  which  he  suspended  ten  days  after 
Senator  Tom  Harkin  withdrew  from  the  race.  He  then  dis- 
cussed the  race  between  President  Bush,  Governor  Bill  Clinton 
and  H.  Ross  Perot.  He  also  mentioned  his  future  business 
plans  to  start  a not  for 
profit  organization. 

Senator  Tsongas  then 
fielded  questions  from 
the  audience.  His  ad- 
vent drew  droves  of 
our  Merrimack  com- 
munity to  pack 
Murray  Lounge.  Our 
thanks  to  Mr.  Tsongas 
for  his  visit.

irlian  View 


It,  sixty  years  ago,  in  relative  obscurity,  a 

fellow  by  the  name  of  George  Kirlian  discovered  a photo- 
graphic process  in  which  the  corona  discharges  of  ordinary 
objects  are  recorded  directly  onto  photographic  plates. 
From  its  introduction  to  the  present,  the  results  of  this 
process  have  been  analyzed  and  a number  of  theories 
regarding  the  auras'  origin  have  been  put  forth.  The 
process  involves  taking  a specimen  and  placing  a potential 
of  around  twenty-five  thousand  volts  across  it.  The  speci- 
men will  glow  with  warm  flourescent  colors,  and  these  can 
be  caught  on  film.  The  process  is  carried  out  in  absolutely 
light  free  conditions— even  safe  lights  are  enough  to  ruin 
the  experiment.  With  patience  and  care,  it  is  possible  to  get 
some  very  striking  images,  as  you  can  see  to  the  right. 

While  theories  abound  about  the  mythical  nature  of  the 
things,  the  science  behind  them  is  well  understood.  This 
does  not  make  them  any  less  interesting.  They  are  one  of 
the  several  alternative  ways  to  look  at  our  world.  The 
different  colors  you  see  are  the  result  of  various  moisture 
levels,  chemicals,  and  rough  spots  on  the  objects. 


The  top  photo  shows  a double  exposure  of  a leaf. 
Exposure  time  was  around  10  seconds  for  each  end. 

The  bottom  photo  shows  a single  leaf  exposed  for 
approximately  12  seconds.  Of  course,  the  colors  are  not 
the  colors  of  the  leaves,  they  are  the  colors  of  the  corona 
discharge  of  the  leaves.

For  the  next  paragraph  the  layout  editor  will  have  control  over  your

Seriously,  what  is  happening  to  the  yearbook?  Since  the  age  of 
interactive  yearbcx)ks  is  not  yet  upon  us,  1 shall  present  some  answ^ers 
myself,  for  your  consideration. 

i The  yearbcwk  v\ill  continue  to  be  a guicfe,  a helping  hand  to  peel  back 
months  and  years  into  a nostalgic  past  for  all  of  us.  For  tlris  reason,  it 
is  imperative  that  the  yearbook  have  a strong  bond  with  tradition.  Tlie 
faces,  names,  events,  smiles,  honors,  joys,  and  struggles  aU  need  to  be 
! married  together.  Indeeci,  the  role  of  the  yearbook  is  to  remind  us  of  our 
rela  tionslrip  as  students  c')f  Merrimack  College  and  siblings  under  Gcxl . 
It  is  also  in  the  motus  operand!  of  the  yearbook  to  provicie  an  insight  of 
sorts;  perhaps  it  is  our  part  even  to  be  a lantern  onto  the  paths  ahead  of 
i us.  In  the  spirit  of  progress,  then,  the  yeartxx)k  has  and  wiU  conhnue 
I to  employ  new'  teclmology  to  present  important  ideas  to  our  progeny. 
To  those  in  the  yearbook  family,  the  yearbook  will  teU  bvo  stories  - it  will 
reve£il  to  our  forebrain  what  has  happened  in,  say,  the  April  of  92,  how 
speakers  came  to  Merrimack  College  for  a talk  on  the  current  issues. 

I And  it  will  guide  us  to  a time  when  we  were  a team,  dedicated  to  the 
compilation  of  a record.  It  is  a time  that  will  not  be  forgotten  by  any  of 
us. 

So  in  the  coming  years,  their  into  the  turn  of  the  century  and  beyond,  it 
will  be  crur  goal  to  meld,  in  a pleasing  and  tivithful  w'ay,  the  spirits  of  the 
historical  sense  and  of  the  propogativ'e  sense. 

It  is  our  hope  that  generations  can  leanr  and  share  with  one  airother 
through  the  yearbook. 


I would  like  to  thank  my  big  brother  at  Merrimack,  Bob  Sinrpson  for 
starting  me  on  my  journey  in  the  the  yearbook. 

I have  enjoyed  the  company  of  aU  1 have  worked  with-  the  love, 
arguments,  tenseness,  aird  friendship  and,  iir  prinre,  the  spirit  of  the 
team  have  been  an  inrportant  part  of  my  Merrimack  exjaerience. 

I look  forw'ard  to  the  new'  year  and  the  challenge  of  the  new'  book  as  an 
Editor.  I w'iU  put  forth  my  best  effort  to  work  as  part  of  a team  so  that 
we  can  agaiir  produce  a book  we  will  be  proud  of.  Of  aU  the  graduates. 
Heather  and  Marion  will  be  badly  missed.  We  w'ere  fortunate  to  work 
with  them. 

It  is  hard  to  believe,  here  in  the  middle  of  the  summer,  that  in  the  fall 
neither  of  them  will  be  av'ailable  so  locally  for  the  support  they  always 
provided.  Wlrere  will  this  bloke  be  sans  the  occasional  ribbing  so 
gratuitously  provided  by  our  illustrious  Marion?  Jest  aside,  1 regret  she 
w'on't  be  here,  and  I will  miss  her...  Heather,  I'm  trving  to  see  the 
distance  from  you  as  a gift...  Tlrat  will  not  be  possible,  w'ltile  absence 
won't  make  the  heart  go  to  wither,  it  surely  can't  provide  for  the  greatest 
fondness  I hav'e  encountereci  being  your  partner  and,  though  I fear  it 
may  belittle  our  bond  to  label  as  such.  Friend.  Tlrank  you... 

I'd  like  to  encourage  with  aU  my  heart  all  members  of  the  Merrimack 
communitv  to  joitr  us  in  wii ting  liistory  for  Merrimack  CoUege  for  1 992-

'IXW,  u’fen  members  of  the  cfass  of  92  ho(d  this  in  their  hands,  they  iihfhbe  cobbecje  graduates ..  about 
to  begin  the  reaf  trip  "on  the  road  to  success.  ’’  ‘Many  hours  of  study,  group  projects,  bast  minute  term 
papers,  drinlqng,  and,  of  course,  the  age  old  fai>orite,  procrastination,  zidbf  be  fond  memories..  Schedules 
can  no  longer  be  altered  to  satdfy  the  desire  to  snooze  until  11:00-  how  depressing.  ‘Before  I continue 
with  my  closing  words  as ‘Editor- In -Chief,  I would  IH^  to  uHsh  the  graduates,  and  the  underclassmen 
the  best  in  all  of  their  endeavors. 

The  ultimate  question.,  what  do  I,  as  ‘Editor  of  this  boo^unsh  to  say  to  members  of  the  Merrimaclli 
College  Community  9 Jirst  of all,  I hope  everyone  enjoys  it.  Mthough  the  staff  ivas  in  a rebuilding  mode, 
certain  people  put  a great  deal  of  time  and  effort  into  its  creation.  1 zinll  be  the  first  to  admit  that  there 
are  certain  things  I would  haz'e  liked  to  have  done  better,  but,  unfortunately,  the  level  of  support  given 
by  so  many  of  the  facul ty  and  staff  members,  as  well  as  some  of  our  peers,  did  not  permit  me  to  do  so. 

Confrontations  regarding  the  darkroom,  frightfully  few  responses  fromfaculty  members  regarding  desired  spotlights,  and  unanswered  memos  in  regards  to  photography 
appointments  for  certain  departments  combined  to  make  the  job  of  creating  the  “perfect  bookf  quite  difficult. 

Of  course,  there  were  certain  students  who  promised  the  zvorld.  To  those  zvhodid  contribute  zinite -ups  or  photos,  I thankjjou.  ltdobznous  that  you  are  the  students 
who  realize  that  a yearbook^  a piece  of  history  ..in  some  senses,  a perfect  shozvease  to  brag  about  a clubs  ora  team 's  accomplishments.  ‘To  some  of  the  students  who 
made  a commitment  but  faded  to  follow  through,  zvhat  ever  happened  to  those f acuity  interzhews?‘l\'hy,  if  youcouldn  'tcoz’er  the  events  did  you  accept  the  responsibility  F 
And  finally,  to  the  two  indizHduals  who  called  late  in  luly  zidth  the  hopes  of  submitting  photos..  'Did  you  ez’er  thinkzve  had  lives  zve  zvant  to  get  on  zinthFF  Although 
the  photos  would  haz>e  been  quite  help  ful  earlier  on,  have  you  ewer  heard  of  deazllinesF 

‘Well,  what  is  done  is  done.  ‘To  the  indizndueds  who  never  made  an  effort  to  get  irwolzred,  you  have  not  earned  the  right  to  criticize.  If,  howez'er,  any  member  of 
the  class  of 93, 94,  or95feeU  he  could  improve  the  publication,  I challenge  him  to  zoalk_into  the  office,  and  join  the  staff.  ‘I’ersonally,  despite  the  occasioned  frustration, 
I have  obtained  a great  deal  of  knowledge  regarding  software  systems,  politics,  and  human  nature.  More  importantly,  I have  made  some  long  lasting  friendships. 
Although  the  yearbewkjnay  not  offer  the  glamour  of  a fraternity,  or  a sorority,  and,  anijone  who  takes  it  seriously  zinll  workjiard,  it  offers  something  more  significant, 
a sense  of  accomplishment  when  i/ou  hold  the  fined  product  in  your  hand  and  reediz.e  ...  I did  this. 

The  most  important  part  of  this  message  I have  saved  for  last,  words  of  thanks  to  the  staff.  To  my  partner  in  crime,  Marion  ‘Eliz.abeth  ‘J\gfferty,  we  did  it!  'Despite 
our  tiffs,  driznng  each  other  nuts  (usiudly  over  the  most  insignificant  things),  and,  the  zoonderful bureaucratic  nonsense,  zve  produced  a fine  product  and  maintained 
a friendship.  It  zinll  definitely  be  strange,  not  needing  to  "live  "in  the  office,  but,  it  is  time  to  move  on.  ‘To  my  sainng grace,  ‘Fhotography 'Editor  Cara  ‘DeMarco,  enough 
thanks  could  never  be  expressed.  Cara,  without  your  efforts,  the  bookwould  have  been  a lot  of  copy..  ‘To  Steven  ‘Ehmianntraut,  zvho,  by  farheul  one  of  the  most  difficult 
sections  in  the  book,  I could  zinite  a eiovel.  ‘Thanlfyoufor  the  laughs,  being  the  honorary  "pub  editor, " and,  of  course  for  being  the  head  of  “distribution. " I zvilllook. 
forward  to  seeing  your  worlfas  Senior  Editor  ne\t  year.  ‘Tien  ‘Jarmer,  thanifyoufor  being  a dependable  imliindual,  and,  if  course,  for  fulfilling  the  role  ofAssistan  t 
TearbookjPsychiatrist.  Scott  Tones,  I truly  hope  you  decide  to  return  to  the  staff,  even  if  you  do  not  resume  your  role  as  Sports  ‘Editor,  f'o^f  enthusiasm,  your  heart, 
and  your  abdity  to  motwate  zinll  be  missed  otherwise.  Meather  iHussey,  you  're  the  best!!  ‘ll’e  are  on  the  zvay  to  creating  a commuter  section  zvith  substance.  ‘Best  of 
ludfne^C  year  proznding  some  equdibrium.  Without  Sharon  Chin,  ‘DaynaDTtria,  or  Christine  ‘Dufresne,  the  senior  section  would  also  be  quite  different.  Christine 
‘Dufresne  unll  cdzvays  be  remembered  as  the  individual  who  zvas  kind  enough  to  capture  some  of  the  senior  weekjvents  on  film.  Last  but  not  least,  zvords  of  zvisdom 
to  the  Layout ‘Editor  Eric  ‘Brozvn.  I could  have  never  done  it  without  you.  ‘Jor  that  matter,  I could  have  never  completed  senior  year  zinthout  you.  ‘Tour  emotional 
support  unll  forever  be  remembered  and  cherished.  Ilookforward  to  seeing  how  you 
unll  allow  your  creativity  to  improve  the  93  book:  I have  the  utmost  confidence  in 
your  abdity  to  be  one  of  the  best  Editors  ever. 

In  closing,  I would  like  to  thanlfthree  indizndual  who  played  a very  special  role 
in  my  life  before,  and  during  this  position,  ‘llpbert  Simpson,  the  fonner  editor  of  the 
booki  and  my  parents.  ‘Bob,  I may  have  cursed  you  in  the  beginning,  but  I nozv 
realize,  there  is  something  special  about  working  on  this  book.  It  is  like  an 
unidentifiable  something  that  frustrates  you,  challenges  you,  but  then,  eventually, 
teaches  you.  Thank_you  for  getting  me  involved.  And,  of  course,  to  my  parents.  I 
really  was  over  here  all  those  nights..  ‘B'll'T,  IT  IS  O'lElRJ!  Mom,  there  unll  be  no 
more  yearboofstuff  laying  around  the  house!!!  And,  there  unll  be  no  more  fits  of 
anger!!  Thank-you  for  putting  up  zvith  me  and  encouraging  me  not  to  quit. 

(food  luclfto  ne?(t  year’s  staff  of  the ‘Merrimackan.  I hope  that  more  students 
at  Merrimackdecide  to  investigate  and  en  ter  into  the  wonderful  world  of  the  college 
yearbook:
